Victorian Times

 
 
Queen Victoria reigned between 1837 to 1901, during which times Britain went through many important changes.

  • Industrial towns continued to grow 
  • New steam trains rattled across the countryside
  • Laws were passed to improve peoples live
  • Working men were allowed to vote
  • Children were stopped from working in horrible conditions and went to school for the first time
Your quality of life during the Victorian times depended on whether you were rich or poor.
  • Wealthy Victorians enjoyed a good and easy life
  • Poor Victorians had a rough and hard life, often ending up in the workhouse or early death.
