	Carrickmacross Workhouse, Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan
		Carrickmacross Workhouse is a restored Union Workhouse dating from 1842.
		The workhouse has been beautifully restored to a modern building with great attention to the architecture and features of the building that make it so special.
		The primary aim of the Workhouse is to operate as a one-stop shop for various community groups and agencies operating in the area, to allow them to integrate together to offer services such as, information provision, training, and employment opportunities to our community.

	Workhouse diets
		The diets given are for six different workhouses: read the daily allocation of food from left to right for each day.
		These diet sheets are very different from the realities of life in the workhouse at both Andover and Huddersfield.
		Furthermore, workhouse food often was adulterated because under-paid workhouse Masters colluded with the suppliers and contractors to make the ingredients 'go further'.
