Dudley Workhouse 1878 - Dudley
The 32nd Report of the Commissioners in Lunacy 31st March 1878 In PP 1878 XXXIX p 084 Dudley Workhouse, overcrowding The imbecile wards of the Dudley Union Workhouse having been found on the visit in October1876, to be inconveniently crowded, the inmates being 107 in number, we called the attention of the Local Government Board to the matter, and recommended for consideration a suggestion made in the Report, that it might be well to erect a separate block for this class. We were glad to learn in February that the guardians had for some time had the matter under consideration, and had determined, with the consent of the Local Government Board, on removing a number of children who occupied part of the building where the imbeciles were placed to new and commodious schools, with teachers' residences. This solution of the difficulty, if carried out, appeared to usunexceptionable.
