If you're looking for information on workhouses, the following sites were really helpful to me:

http://www.workhouses.org.uk/
http://institutions.org.uk/workhouses/

There are also some good books available about workhouses in England. I hope this is useful, because I spent ages looking for information on Kingston Union Workhouse and I went to so many dead ends. Spread the knowledge!!
