OysterTown - 1891 Blean Workhouse
Introduction
We continue from where we left the inhabitants of the workhouse in 1881 and move on to 1891. We find two of the St. Clare (St.Clair) children are still present and another has joined them. Their mother is no longer listed.
Peter Higginbotham has written some pages about the history of this workhouse here. The buildings were later converted into a hospital and more recently been developed into a residential area known as Canterbury Fields.
