The Soldiers Infant Home, Roslyn-Park, Hampstead, 1856. Creator: Unknown
The Soldiers Infant Home, Roslyn-Park, Hampstead, [London], 1856. View of... a Home for the Infant Children of soldiers - the children of those whose mothers have died, and left them without protection...Rosslyn House [is] an extensiive structure, most delightfully situated amid shrubberies and gardens...In a circular room were forty or fifty little girls under the care of the school-mistress....The rosy-faced children looked a wonder of neatness, dressed in their scarlet frocks and lilac pinafores. Most of these little ones have been rescued from great poverty and neglect. Here they will be reared in habits of industry - the greater part of them instructed in the duties of female domestic servants; while the more intelligent it is proposed to instruct as pupil teachers in the educational department of the establishment'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
