Grove Hospital

Reproduction of a single black and white photograph of a group of staff and patients (holding a banner from '4B ward') outside the Grove Hospital, Tooting.

Note that this image dates from before the Grove was absorbed into St George's in the 1950s (but after it had dropped the 'Fever' from its original name of Grove Fever Hospital); for later images of the Grove site in its St George's era, see NU/6/2/1/6.

St Benedict's Hospital

Single black and white photograph of a group of student nurses at St Benedict's Hospital, Tooting.

Note that the only indicator that this photograph relates to St Benedict's is a label written on the plastic folder containing it. It is possible that there are more unidentified St Benedict's photographs mixed in with the St James' ones (see NU/6/2/5/1).
