    The Grange Hospital 1st World War

    I have dozens of Photographs of the St John VAD Hospital that was situated at 'The Grange' in Southport. They show pictures of the buildings, wards, patients and staff. I have attached a couple for those interested.

    Where would be an appropriate home for these Photo's?

    Where would be an appropriate home for the photographs is not an easy question to answer at the present time....
    There comes a point in your life when you realise who really matters, who never did and who always will.

    Please post them they are brilliant and I might add VERY valuable
    Do you have any of woodlands?.
    I should have added the originals that you have are valuable,but with the museum gone I would hang on to them until somewhere appropriate could be found where they could be seen by towns folk as part of history of southport.

    As an aside... I doesn't look too comfy in that 'ambulance'!
    Why do people never admit to being just the right amount of whelmed?
