PAUPERISM AND THE FYLDE UNION.
In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries it was not customary to
recognise the pauper as a person whose misfortunes, however brought
about, called for charitable aid, but all legislature was directed
against his class under the common title of vagabonds. A statute of
1384 decreed that all vagrants should be arrested and either placed in
the stocks, or imprisoned until the visit of the justices, who would do
with them whatever seemed best by law; and in 1496 the punishment of
incarceration was abolished, but the stocks were retained. The sixteenth
century initiated a little more considerate state of things, and justices
of the peace were authorised in 1531 to grant begging licenses to any
necessitous persons in their districts unable to work for a livelihood.
An act of 1547 ordained that any vagabond, not incapacitated by old age
or illness, loitering and not seeking work for three days should be
brought before a magistrate, who was directed to adjudge such vagrant
to be, for two years, the slave of the person by whom he had been
apprehended, in addition to which he had to be branded with the letter
V on the breast. In case he ran away the law ordered that a further
branding of the sign S should be inflicted, this time on his forehead
or the ball of his cheek, and that slavery should be his perpetual
portion. A third escape entailed death when re-captured. This enactment
was never really enforced as popular indignation at its extreme severity
was aroused at once, and after lingering two years it was repealed in
favour of the stocks-legislature. In 1551 it was decreed that a register
of destitute persons should be kept in each parish, and that alms should
be collected in Whit-week, whilst on the Sunday following, during divine
service at church, “the collectors should gently ask and demand of every
man and woman what they of their charity would give weekly towards
the relief of the poor.” The funds so obtained were to be distributed
amongst the poor “after such sort that the more impotent might have the
more help, and such as could get part of their living the less.” Eleven
years later a statute ordained that if any person refused to contribute
alms when called upon he should be summoned before a justice, who would
determine the amount he had to pay, and commit him to gaol in case of
further refusal. The legislative body of Queen Elizabeth passed “An Act
for the punishment of vagabonds and the relief of the poor and impotent,”
by which justices of the peace were instructed to register the names of
all the impotent poor who had been born within their several districts,
or been existing there on alms within the three preceding years; to
assign to them convenient places for dwellings or lodgings, in case the
parish had not already undertaken that duty of its own free will; to
assess the inhabitants to a weekly charge; and to appoint overseers of
the poor, having authority to exact a certain amount of work from those
candidates for relief who were not entirely disabled from labour by age,
sickness, or deformity. In 1575-6 it was ordered that a stock of wool
or hemp should be provided in the different parishes for the purpose
of “setting the poor at work,” and that “Houses of Correction” should
be established, in which vagrants or tramps were to be detained, the
able-bodied being furnished with employment until a service was found for
them, and the infirm transferred to an alms-house as soon as practicable.
The “Houses of Correction,” the origin of our workhouses, were directed
to be built in large cities, or in the central towns of wide districts,
thus the one for the Fylde was situated at Preston, an old college of
Grey Friars lying to the south of Marsh Lane being converted to that
use. Dr. Kuerden described this building more than two centuries ago
as the “old Friary, now only reserved for the reforming of vagabonds,
sturdy beggars, and petty larcenary thieves, and other people wanting
good behaviour; it is the country prison to entertain such persons
with hard work, spare diet, and whipping, and it is called the House of
Correction.” The present gaol of Preston was not completed until 1789,
and by force of habit the expressive title of its predecessor has clung
to it.
In 39 Elizabeth, 1597, an act came into force by which all previous
legislation on the subject under consideration was repealed, and which
decreed that overseers of the poor should be appointed in every parish,
whose duty it should be to levy a rate upon the inhabitants for the
support of the indigent, under the direction and with the approval of the
local magistrates; in addition there were special regulations for the
treatment of rogues, vagrants, and able beggars, for whom whipping and
the stocks were ordered, after undergoing which punishments these idlers
were to be returned at once to their native parishes and placed under the
guardianship of the local authorities there.
Four years later certain modifications were made in the early part of the
last statute, but the main principle of individual taxation by overseers,
under the superintendence of justices of the peace, was retained
unaltered. The chief objects of the law as it stood at the end of 1601
were—to relieve the lame, sick, aged, impotent, and blind; to compel
others of the poor to work, and to put out their children as apprentices.
At that time any one leaving his employment and wandering beyond the
boundaries of his parish without any ostensible means of gaining a
livelihood was liable to be arrested and punished as a vagabond, in
addition he was compelled to return to his own district in disgrace;
so that whether a law confining labourers to their own neighbourhoods
existed then or not, it is certain that they had little inducement to
venture forth amongst strangers.
In 1662, during the reign of Charles II., the Law of Settlement was
passed, by which all members of such classes as were likely to become
at some period or other chargeable to the parish rates, were compelled
to settle themselves on the parochial district to which they were
connected by birth, marriage, apprenticeship, or similar ties; and upon
which parish alone they would subsequently have any claim. In this way
the unfortunate peasantry and labouring population were more securely
than ever imprisoned within their parishes, for if they escaped the
fate of the rogue and vagabond, and obtained work in another part of
the country, they were generally hunted out and driven home for fear
they should become burdens on rates to which they had no title. Such a
condition of things went on with little change for nearly two centuries,
but the causes which finally brought about a material alteration in the
arrangement of pauper relief will be noticed in the context. The erection
of workhouses for the different parishes of the kingdom was sanctioned
in 1723 by the legislature, and three years later, as learnt from the
following extract out of the minute book of the bailiffs of Kirkham, the
inhabitants of that town determined to establish one:—
“22 May, 1726:—Mem. That the town of Kirkham was summonsed from
house to house, and the inhabitants unanimously agreed to the
setting up of a workhouse.”
The act which decreed the building of workhouses for the employment
of the poor, stated that if any one refused to enter those houses, or
objected to perform his share of labour, no relief should be apportioned
to him. There can be little doubt that workhouses sprang up at Poulton
and in the other parishes of the Fylde about that date, as well as at
Kirkham, but in their cases there are no bailiffs’ registers, or similar
records, to fall back upon for proof as to the accuracy of the surmise,
and consequently we are unable to speak with absolute certainty. In the
twenty-second year of the reign of George III. (1782), it was enacted
that the guardians of the poor should employ the paupers of their
separate parishes in labour on the land at small remuneration, and that
the poor rate should be used only to increase the payment to a sum
large enough for the subsistence of each pauper thus employed. Country
justices, desirous of standing well in the opinion of the peasantry, were
not over scrupulous in the discharge of their supervisionary functions,
and granted or sanctioned the granting of relief orders without any
minute inquiry into the merits of the cases. Immorality was encouraged
by an allowance from the poor-rate to the mother for each illegitimate
child. Practical responsibility for the proper administration of the
fund rested on no one, and about 1830 “the poor-rate had become public
spoil, the ignorant believed it an inexhaustible source of wealth, which
belonged to them; the brutal bullied the administrators to obtain their
share; the profligate exhibited their bastards, which must be fed; the
idle folded their arms and waited till they got it; ignorant boys and
girls married upon it; country justices lavished it for popularity, and
guardians for convenience.”[232]
In 1832 a Royal Commission was appointed to visit the different parishes,
and investigate the abuses which were being universally carried on; and
in 1834 a bill was brought in to amend the laws relative to the Relief
of the Poor in England and Wales, and passed that year, some of the main
clauses being—an acknowledgment of the claims to the relief of the really
necessitous, the abolition of settlement by hiring and service, and of
all out-door relief to the able-bodied. The enactment provided for the
union of small and neighbouring parishes, the rating and expenditure of
the rates remaining a distinct and separate matter; each union was to
have a common workhouse for all its parishes, in which the men, women,
children, able-bodied, and infirm must be separated, and where the
able-bodied inmates should do a certain amount of work for each meal. The
distribution of relief was left to the guardians and select vestries,
and to the overseers in their absence. The whole system of unions and
parish relief was placed under the control of a Central Board, by whom
everything was arranged and settled, and to whom any appeals were to be
directed.
Shortly after the passing of this act, the following twenty-three
townships of the Fylde were banded together for parochial
purposes, and denominated the Fylde Union:—Bispham-with-Norbreck,
Bryning-with-Kellamergh, Carleton, Clifton-with-Salwick, Little
Eccleston-with-Larbrick, Elswick, Freckleton, Greenhalgh-with-Thistleton,
Hardhorn-with-Newton, Kirkham, Layton-with-Warbreck, Lytham, Marton,
Medlam-with-Wesham, Newton-with-Scales, Poulton, Ribby-with-Wrea,
Singleton, Thornton, Treales, Roseacre, Wharles, Warton,
Weeton-with-Preese, and Westby-with-Plumptons. In 1844 the guardians
erected the Union Workhouse at Kirkham, at a cost of about £5,400, and
in 1864 the building was enlarged so as to be able to accommodate 250
paupers. All small, local workhouses in the districts comprised in the
union were of course closed on the opening of the central one. The
guardians of the different townships constitute a board, in whose hands
rests the regulation of all matters concerning the union.
By a subsequent act, the original Central Board of Poor Law Commissioners
was superseded by a controlling board composed of four members of the
government, _ex officio_, and certain other commissioners appointed
by Her Majesty in council, the inspectors, whom, it should have been
mentioned, were provided under the previous act, were now invested with
more extended powers; workhouse visitors were appointed; annual reports
were ordered to be issued; and a clause forbidding the cohabitation of
man and wife in the workhouses was dispensed with after the parties had
arrived at sixty years of age.

[73] John Hull, M.D., F.L.S., commenced his professional education at
Blackburn in 1777; and in 1791, after graduating in medicine, settled
at Manchester, where he attained to considerable eminence both as a
physician and writer on botanical and medical subjects. He retired from
practice to his native town of Poulton in 1836, and remained there until
his demise.
[74] “Enter and pray, if you have raised to heaven your open palms you

[75] Mr. Rudhall, as we learn from the following entry in the registers
of the 30 men of Kirkham, was in business at Gloucester:—“1749, April
14. Paid old Mr. Rudhall for coming from Gloucester to take notes of the
bells when the 2nd. was recast, £3 3s. 0d.”
[76] The Pancake Bell is usually rung by an apprentice of the town as a
signal for his _confreres_ to discontinue work for that day, but strange
to say on a late occasion not one apprentice could be found in the whole
of Poulton, and consequently the duty was performed by the ordinary
bell-ringer.
[77] In all previously issued lists of vicars, Richard Fleetwood has
erroneously been named as patron in this instance. There was no Rich.
Fleetwood of Rossall at that time, and Edward, who had been patron at the
former institution, was probably still alive as he had no son and but one
daughter, who married Roger Hesketh, the next patron in right of his wife.
[78] In 1876 a brass plate was found in Poulton church, near the site of
the old communion table, inscribed:—“Here lies the body of Anne, wife of
Richard Harrison, vicar of Poolton, who dyed the 24th of December, 1679,
aged 55 years.”

became a dead letter, if indeed it were ever carried into practice.
