Claypenny Hospital was
originally the Easingwold Union Workhouse. It was built in 1837. The architects
were John and William Atkinson. It cost about £2,600 and could accommodate 130
inmates. Women inmates performed domestic work and picked oakum, while men did
corn-grinding, stone-breaking and gardening. In 1869 an infirmary was added.
In 1934 it became a
home for disabled people, called Claypenny Colony. It
was later known as Claypenny Hospital. In the early
21st Century the buildings are used for private residences.
