Hi
My Dad was born there on 8 Jan 1925. In those days I think babies were usually born at home but some women went to maternity homes and then 'lay in' for a week or two. The homes were fairly small and it wouldn't surprise me if 1 Loughborough Road wasn't a Victorian 3 storey house which are very common in that part of Bridgford.
It is in the area right by Trent Bridge Cricket Ground and near Nottm Forest football ground. There have been many developments around there and it is probably knocked down now.
I will look into it further because of my Dads connection and let you know if I find out.
Jane

Hi, the house could now well be a car sales place. I know there is one at the start of Loughborough Road, and also found this site.
http://www.westbridgfordhistory.org/heritageWalk.htm
Good map on old-maps.co.uk that shows the buildings before the car sales place.

Hi Seyshell
This is my posh granny you are talking about. It most certainly wasn't an unmarried mothers home.
I am really busy at work at the moment but I can look into it more in a few months time. If I do not get back to you send me a PM and I will go to the archives. Also via PM/email send me everything you know about who you want information on. You may want thousands of things but one at a time. Make it really clear as people can make things really complicated when talking about family trees. Give me 2 or 5 or 10 things to find out. I can see from your profile you are in Oz so I will go the extra mile for you. You cannot make a trip to the archives!
If you send me a PM I will give you my email.
Kind regards
Jane
