This must be St.Anns Rd. hospital. If so, I used to deliver the papers here from the newsagent near the Salisbury in the early 60's.

Yes, it's St Ann's Hospital on St Ann's Road - some of the Victorian parts of which will be demolished soon to make way for housing.

I used to walk pass it on the way to South Grove Secondary Modern school.

I too went to South Grove school, 1948/1952. My mother worked at St Ann`s hospital

St Anne's has a long history and wasgiven over for American use I read in WW1 before later under NHS ownership, it's use in mental health. It's links to Kew created some exotic gardens with unusual trees too, but half now sold for housing -well blocks of flats I suppose.

I love this photo, it brings back memories. I lived in Beechfield Road off of Hermitage Road and went to Woodland Park schools from 1955 to 1962 so walked past the police station and this wall every school day.  I was an inpatient in St Ann’s in late 1956, with pneumonia, but only really remember nurses and an iron bed.  I was Elaine Potticary then.
