With Howard Greenwood

Quoted from a letter to the Harrow Gazette, this talk will delve deep into the evolving history of the lost Harrow Hospital on Roxeth Hill. The talk will feature original material from the collections at Headstone Manor & Museum on aspects from patient care, nursing, medicine and cottage hospitals from 1868-1998.
