A most unusual record was maintained under the Poor Law Act 1834 that the religion of each inmate was recorded at the time of admittance. The religion of the guardians often had influence on how inmates were treated and therefore is an important contribution to the social and religious history of workhouses. Sadly, the question of religion was a huge issue of the time whereby, one religion did not accept the others creating a high level of animosity between inmates. This is a subject area that no other historian has previously studied despite religion being one of the most contentious issues of workhouse life and therefore a huge contribution to the flavour of workhouse life. Perfect for A level or Humanities students.
