Bedminster Union Workhouse, Farleigh Hospital, Flax Bourton

This workhouse was built in Classical style, between 1837-9, to a Sir George Gilbert Scott and Moffatt design in local grey stone with an ashlar entrance range, with coursed rubble on the three and four storey ranges. It had a stone barrel vault and good iron gates to the entrance. Its cost was £6600 and it was to accommodate 300 inmates. The site is now used for office space.
