My GGGGG GF would have been a City fan....probably

My GGG Grandfather lived in Suffolk all his life, the majority in Wickhambrook. He lost quite a lot of his children at quite early ages and after his wife died in 1848, he is shown on the 1851 census as a Pauper Agricultural Labourer, living with another family.
It shouldn't surprise me that he died in a workhouse in 1858 aged 78. He is still shown as being an Agricultural Labourer. He died in the Union Workhouse in Kedington.
Can anyone shed any light where I may find records of the workhouse, inmates lists or information of what life may have been like generally?
Regards

Hi Hepburn
Thanks for replying. The archives records appear to be mainly fot the early part of last century. I'm really looking for those between 1851 and 1858.
Thanks anyway.
Regards

If any records survive, then they will most probably be in the local Suffolk Records Office.
