«Breaking News» Malnourished and brutally beaten poor children in Victorian Britain

These harrowing images are part of an unearthed set of photographs from Liverpool taken in the Victorian era.


The pictures paint a bleak portrait of what life was like for the downtrodden children at a time of rapid change in a period of intense industrialisation.


Bare-footed, dirt on their face and their clothes torn - three small children look helplessly into the camera.


Meanwhile a little girl stands on a pub table singing for the punters, hoping for some spare change. 


Being poor in Liverpool at the turn of the twentieth century almost guaranteed a life in a slum, most likely to the north of the city as many of the factories were located there.


Children were expected to work long hours in dangerous jobs for minuscule wages.




Three children with dirty faces, torn clothes  and no shoes look helpless in this snap taken in Liverpool in 1880. In the Victorian era children were expected to work long hours in dangerous jobs for very little wage. Mortality rates for children were poor, with the main cause of death being polluted water and dire housing conditions

A shoe-less young girl entertains a crowd of men in a pub in Liverpool in 1895. This period fell within the industrial revolution which bought rapid change to many cities, including Liverpool. But the riches of industrialisation were not shared among the whole populace and cities like Liverpool had a dual character. The docks embodied the power and scope of British trading and economic power. While children as young as four would work in terrible conditions in newly opened factories in the north of the city or beg on the streets

This little boy was brought to the Liverpool Society for the Prevention of Cruelty for Children (LSPCC) in 1900 and had sustained some shocking injuries. It was the first of its time founded in the country with the express aim 'to form a society for the prevention of cruelty to children.' Years later similar societies were founded in cities such as London and Glasgow.  The first shelter in Liverpool was opened on Nile Street, before a more permanent base was found in Islington Square

The average life expectancy was 30 years old for a labourer and children born in the poor parts of Liverpool would be lucky to survive their fifth birthday

A group of children who have had their heads shaved in order to remove lice in the city, circa 1900. Hygiene was often poor in parts of the city at that time and disease was rife. Of a particular concern during this era was tuberculosis which claimed more than 70,000 lives a year. To add to threats of disease and atrocious standards of hygiene, drinking water was often polluted and was a significant cause of death

Malnourished children stand outside the Liverpool Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children home in 1900. Children at this time could have a variety of jobs such as chimney sweep, coal mine work, selling what they could on the street, or even resort to stealing. Due to the poor standard of drinking water, young children could even be seen drunk in the streets

Jobs children would do included chimney sweeps, the little children who could scramble under machinery to retrieve cotton bobbins, coal mine work or crawling through tunnel too narrow for an adult to undertake.


Some children would struggle to find even these unenviable tasks so would resort to selling what they could on a street. Failing that some of them would steal to get by.


However, it was not always misery as you can see from the large assembly of people watching a spontaneous cricket match beneath Wellington’s Memorial Statue.


Or the row of boys smiling at the camera, despite their lack of shoes and clean clothes, whilst sitting on the Steble fountain outside St George’s Hall.


The photos are from the Liverpool City Library and the Records Office certainly offer an unflinching glimpse as to what life was like.

A game of cricket is played with a full crowd assembled beneath the Duke of Wellington's memorial statue in Liverpool city centre, circa 1890. The statue was unveiled eleven years after Wellington's death in May 1863. Crowds gathered to see the unveiling and more than 2,000 soldiers attended and there was a 19 gun salute

A nursery in a Liverpool slum, circa 1900. During this period the city of Liverpool changed rapidly. Because of the port, the demographic of the city changed significantly. Specifically, this time period saw an influx of Irish who came to the city to find work and escape famine in the 1840s and 1850s

A crowd in a Liverpool slum gather to hear a missionary, circa 1900. The conditions within the slums cannot be understated. The buildings were often of dire quality and filled with rubbish. The shabby nature of the buildings meant it was difficult to keep warm and the poor nature of bathroom facilities, meant it was sometimes more convenient to defecate in the street

A severely malnourished four-year-old, Liverpool, 1900. For many children in the city, if you did not work you could not eat. This would put you in line for a number of very dangerous jobs such as working in a factory or destitution. Due to the sometimes abusive nature of the family situations at home, some children ended up in the streets, simply striving to get by

Good are sold close to Liverpool's pier head, 1890.

Two bare-footed and dirty looking young boys pose for a picture, Liverpool, circa 1880s. Street children in the city were often found living in large groups in alleys or side streets.

Five ragged children pose for a picture, Liverpool, circa 1900. A typical slum in the Victorian-era would have the most basic of cooking implements. There wouldn't be an oven and even basic cutlery or plates was rare. A typical meal might consist of some sort of broth, usually made from boiling bones. Scurvy was a common ailment for young children, who often lacked any real form of nutrition

Bare-footed, dirt on their face...


It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
