'Union' refers to the Poor Law Union, by which several parishes joined together to carry out their obligations under the Poor Law and erected what was popularly known as a workhouse on this site. The main building was behind, and was of a similar size to the present Junior School which now occupies the site. Union Court provides sheltered housing.
