SHUK TV PARANORMAL | PARANORMAL EXPLORE at the HAUNTED & ABANDONED WORKHOUSE!! @ShadowHuntersUKTV | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 minutes ago.
PLEASE USE HEADPHONES FOR THE BEST EXPERIENCE
Join myself and @MoxleysParanormalWorld as we explore and investigate the old abandoned "UNION WORKHOUSE"
The witness accounts of paranormal activity here are insane!
*Multiple sightings of a man dressed in white have been seen here, he is known as "The Dr".
*A man with a beard and top hat has been sighted in the accommodation block.
*Footsteps are regularly heard here, almost as if you are being followed.
*Disembodied voices and cries.
*Clothing being tugged and pulled.
The atmosphere inside the buildings is almost depressing. It is as if all of the trauma and misery has been soaked up by the walls.
HISTORY
Shaw Heath workhouse on Christmas Day 1841, designed by a Mr Henry Bowman. The main building being four stories high built with red brick.
It housed approximately 600 people with yards sectioned out for men, women, boys and girls.
At either end of the wings were schools for the children. Sadly, due to the trade depression, overcrowding led to these rooms being taken over and turned into further wards for the old and infirm.
The floors of the main building were connected by concrete stairs with iron rails, overhead bars were put in place to stop people jumping or falling down the central well.
At the front gates, visiting lorries would be weighed prior to entry to check against invoices.
The bottom two floors under the clock were Master R G Hankins and his wife, the Matrons, private quarters. The garden in front of the clock was the Masters private area with a greenhouse and summer house.
Families and individuals were separated accordingly into groups. The male and female able bodied were put to work in the laundry, bakery, wood yard and sent on deliveries to local businesses.
The chronically sick, mental and casual people were trusted with less demanding tasks, such as catering for the floating population of tramps who wandered from town to town.
The children were sent to cottage homes around the town and families were allowed to meet once a week on Saturday.
A single GPO telephone line was installed and served the whole workhouse. This consisted of a small brown box with a single earphone on the end of a lead. Operation was to set the pointer on the desired stud and with a vigorous turn of the handle, a hopeful connection would be made.
The Luddite riots of 1842 were brought on partly because of a widespread manufacturing slump. The workhouse became a target of an attack by a group of unemployed workers. It was reported that a mob forced the entrance and helped themselves to bread and money, amassing 672 loaves and £7 in copper.
Up until its final demise in 2003/2004, many modifications to the site took place; buildings were added and modified to serve the demands of the system. The building of a new office was completed in 1905. In keeping with the main workhouse, it is constructed from red brick, stone trimming and contains a floating stone staircase with an intermediate landing.
