Bawnboy Workhouse Co. Ltd is a diverse group of people working together to utilise opportunities which exist to preserve, promote and develop the old Bawnboy Workhouse for the local and wider community as well as the national heritage. The great value of the Bawnboy Workhouse is that despite the decaying state of the buildings, it is still a whole Workhouse and the only one in the country reasonably complete and in its original form. It needs immediate preservation to prevent further damage and decay.
