Please Sir I Want Some More !

Christmas At The Workhouse 1842

On Christmas day upwards of 130 paupers in Spotland Workhouse were treated to an excellent dinner of roast beef and plum pudding.
They also had half a load of malt brewed into ale.
In the morning most of them attended divine service at Spotland Church.
