Summary[edit]

Description
English: Cardigan Workhouse This institution, which is some way from the town, in fact across the river in St Dogmael's, was built in 1839/40 for the relief of the poor, needy and unfortunate of the district, following the passing of the infamous Poor Law Amendment Act in 1834. The building, intended to accommodate 120 inmates, was designed by William Owen of Haverfordwest. The workhouse layout followed the popular cruciform or "square" design, with its entrance block facing north-east. There were separate entrance doors for males and females. The building, marked as Castle Albro on the OS map, is now privately owned.
