Workhouse Tour

Current location:
Workhouse mortuary block
Because death in the workhouse was not uncommon, workhouses had a dead-room or mortuary, often located near the infirmary. The bulding usually had high or opaque windows and good ventilation.

From here you can:
Enter the mortuary
Go to the graveyard
Go back to front block
