==?date - present==
Manzil Way is home to numerous NHS and third sector health organizations, as well as East Oxford Mosque. All that remains of the former workhouse is the chapel behind the mosque (now Asian Cultural Centre).

Following the closure of the workhouse, the buildings were used as a geriatric hospital. None of the workhouse buildings still exist, save the former chapel. The single-storey buildings behind Restore, now used by Oxford Health NHS Trust for mental health services, seem to date from the time of the geriatric hospital (1960s?).

The whole of the Manzil Way site was formerly home to an imposing workhouse, approached by a long drive (now Manzil Way road).
