Thank you replying -- yes, I have looked at this site. The images that they have are relatively modern with parked cars beside the buildings, I am hoping to find an early 20th C image that I can include in a write up of a distant ancestor.

There are some photos here although not quite as old as you hope for

Many thanks, although it is in the background, it gives a better feeling of a workhouse than the other images.
