Brixworth Union Workhouse
Brixworth Union Workhouse
Erected in 1835-6 to accommodate 265 inmates. Conditions were described as "prison-like and spartan", while food was "meagre and tasteless", according to Brixworth History Society. Has since been used as the local council offices and is now home to a firm of surveyors called QMP.
