The old Penzance Union workhouse

The old Penzance Union workhouse was built in 1838 at Madron. It was designed by George Gilbert Scott and his partner William Bonython Moffatt. Intended to accommodate 400 inmates, the Poor Law Commissioners authorised the sum of £6,050 on its construction.
Later it became the home to Madron Meat Company and mostly it has been turned into flats now. supplied by Di and Den
