Southwell Workhouse (Southwell)

Southwell Workhouse is a historic building at Southwell in Nottinghamshire.

It is situated in Upton Road.

The Workhouse was built in 1824 by local man Rev John Becher, a social reformer, using more humane methods than before.

He built the Workhouse in a pink brick, overlooking the fields outside the town, with the towers of Southwell Minster as a backdrop.

It is now in the hands of the National Trust.
