"The Workhouse is at Stradbroke and had 120 inmates in 1841, and 314 in 1851, when the census was taken. It was built in 1834-5, at the cost of about ,£10,000, and has room for about 350 inmates. It is a large cruciform building, admirably adapted for the most im-proved system of classification; and within the same enclosure is a fever ward, erected at the cost of £600."[1]
