Site of Eastry Union Workhouse, Mill Lane, Eastry. Prior to the erection of the new Union Workhouse some of the existing parish poorhouses were used with the Ash and Wingham workhouses keeping their own non-able bodied inmates and all other inmates being accommodated at the old Eastry Union Workhouse; this building was to the east of the new building. The new Union Workhouse was built at Eastry, next to the old Eastry Union Workhouse, with the first inmates being transferred to the new Workhouse in March 1836.
