Sevenoaks Workshouse - any photos?
« on: Saturday 28 August 10 20:08 BST (UK) »
My Gr x 2 Grandfather Charles GREEN b 1834 in Cheltenham Gloucester was in Sevenoaks Workhouse from 28th December 1918 to when he died there on 31st Jan 1923.

Are there any photos /post cards or the workhouse building and could there have been any photos of the inmates?

I don't have any photos of Charles and was wondering if they routinely took any photos in the workshouses ?

Many thanks

Bellou :) :)
