Newmarket: Former 1837 Union Workhouse
This building on Exning Road has been converted to a residential development and the estate agents' ads coyly refer to it as a "gated period conversion". What they don't say is that the building started out in life in 1837 as the Newmarket Union Workhouse and it remained as such until at least 1903. By 1927 it had acquired the name White Lodge but was still a Poor Law Institution. But by 1938 it had become the White Lodge Hospital and was used as an emergency hospital during the Second World War. After the war it became part of Newmarket's General Hospital until it was surplus to requirements and sold off.

Newmarket: Church of St Etheldreda
Etheldreda was a Saxon princess born in Exning in 630 AD who founded the first Christian place of worship at the site where Ely Cathedral was subsequently built. This tiny church was built in a corner of the 1837 Newmarket Union Workhouse, part of the converted buildings of which can be seen to the left. The Church post-dates the workhouse by many years. It is not shown on the Ordnance Survey map of 1891 but is present on the 1903 edition. The tree in front with the very light green foliage is a false acacia.

Newmarket: Gwynne Terrace, Exning Road
Victorian residential development spread northwards along Exning Road from the Union Workhouse site. This terrace dates from 1875, and every succeeding terrace going towards Exning has a slightly later date. The end house has had its chimney removed at some stage which somewhat reduces the symmetry of the terrace.
