The reason I asked where it was is that I live in Brentwood, so thought I might be able to tell you what was there now.
The link Tricia gives is really informative about the place - and it also gives lots of info about Ella Gilespie who worked there.

The building later becames St Faiths Hospital (I remember that), but recently it was all pulled down and redeveloped (as the article in tricia's link says) and it is a new office building which is  BT headquarters.

Thankyou ladies for all this info, I can now, tell George's grandchildren, what you have found,
and they can order the films on the workhouse, and then they may learn a little bit more on who put george there. whether it was his mother, or someone else.
Thanks again.....
joanne.
