My Mother Majorie Stopford(nee Yeulett) worked at Whittingham Hospital as a Nurse in 1937/38 and lived in Longridge with her Mother at 3 Ashton St.. Her Brother Ernest Yeulett worked there after the war I think and later his son William Yeulett.

Maybe the black and red tile color combination had something to do with the Nazification period of Germany during WWII? They liked to use that color combination a lot elsewhere and since this hospital is in Berlin it would stand to reason they may have gone through and redecorated the place with their favored color scheme. Just a thought/idea.

I acquired a 1937 Drinker-Collins iron lung from a junk yard and had it restored at Rick's Restorations in Las Vegas, home of American Restoration on The History Channel. The show (episode title "American Respiration") aired Tuesday, May 7, and will be airing more times over the next few weeks and months.

I used this as my wallpaper , then installed a backup lost it and now I have found you again......yeay....

I love this kind of shot looks great

Any recommendations for how to enter? My friend and I are looking to take a few shots this weekend, and have no idea where to start.

I do not like this picture.

The golden yellow + the blue, such pleasing hues, shades and tints and all the light + shadows x-marking on the floor; it is so good.
The patients saw this, too....

Probably Horsehair.
Feathers and down; expensive. Hair of the Horse; cheap!
Really common for ages.
The pillow stuffed with horsehair is heavy and no fun for pillow-fighting.
We still have a few old mattresses + pillows stuffed with horsehair in the attic, for fun + nostalgic reasons. The are app. 80 yrs.old and have not lost shape or comfort. They always feel warm really fast.

where is this place located exactly??? I know how to get to the Westport area but how can i actually get to this particular location?
