A classic humorous seaside photo wall. A family at the beach in bathing costumes. Pop your face in the hole to complete the picture of a family. Hand painted and varnished with a slight sepia varnish and authentically aged this could be an illustration from the 1920s.

Outside the work cells. One of the jobs given to those unable or not wanting to pay for a night's sleep was wood chopping. Old railway sleepers were purchased by the workhouse and quite likely sawn into blocks. These would then be put in the Spike's work cells for the inmates to chop up as their task for the day.
