Hi All

Does anyone know exactly where this hospital known as No 5 General Hospital was?

Thanks

Val

Westminster Road Kirkdale. Val

Thanks for that Katie, I thought it might have been Kirkdale Homes or Stanley Hospital

It was the Kirkdale Homes on Westminster Road used as the 5th Canadian Western Hospital

And a very murky place it was too, walked past it every day home from work, dreadful in bad weather with the wind howling through it.
