    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?

    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'!

    I have just come across this thread, having found an autograph book of a relaive who worked as a VAD nurse at the Grange , do you still have the photoes or scans of them?
