Cottage Hospital

I don't know exactly when the first photo here was taken, but it was presented to the Matron of the hospital, Miss L M Jeans, in 1937.
The hospital was, originally, called Heathfield House and was owned by the Mansfield family, whose name is preserved in Mansfield Road, which joins Chester Road a couple of hundred yards or so to the left of where these pictures were taken from.
In 1914 the house was bought from the family and used to treat wounded soldiers then, after briefly closing after the first world war, reopened in December of 1919 as the Ellesmere Port Cottage Hospital.
