View of Chapel Allerton Hospital showing some of the wards that were part of the military hospital during and after the second world war. The hospital had been originally established in the First World War, run by the Ministry of Pensions to care for the many limbless service personnel who returned from the trenches. It was initially based in the stately mansion of Gledhow Grange but expanded over the years. A new wing called Newton Green was established on a site on the opposite side of Harehills Lane in the 1970s; in the 1990s a new Chapel Allerton Hospital was built alongside this, while the old site was sold off for housing. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | military hospital Chapel Allerton Hospital | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
