Alphabetical address book containing postal addresses (and sometimes telephone numbers) of people and institutions. Although it has no label or date, it can be assumed to be from one of the St George's sites (possibly the Grove?) as it includes the names of St George's staff (and has entries such as 'Hospital Car Service (Tooting area)'); the approximate date range can be inferred from the inclusion of Viscount Ingleby (who did not receive that title until 1956) and 'Tite Street [i.e. Victoria] Hospital for Children' (which closed in 1964).
An additional page of typed addresses has been inserted into the volume.

Alphabetical register labelled 'New-Entrants Documents' containing lists of names and signatures with columns headed 'Education Certificate' and 'Birth Certificate' stating whether these documents were checked.
