Although it's 60 years since I was stationed at a Military Psychiatric Hospital in Scotland, I seem to recall that Clifton M.H. was also a psychiatric hospital.  Sorry that I can't be more specific.

Hi Jon !!

There's quite a list for WW1 Military Hospitals but I can't find too much on WW2 !! .... as you've probably already found out !!  :-\

I did find a Clifton Hospital .... but it was in Yorkshire and it was used during WW2 ........

I wonder if an email here might bring you some local information ...

Many thanks for that, tried the Devon Libraries Local Studies Service but drew a blank, they referred me to Devon Record Office who need the request in writing, at least you have given me a kick start.
