Hi, Paul, and welcome to Rootschat!
I love it when a thread bursts back into life, in this case after nearly 5 years.
And, yes, Ditchburn Place (the old workhouse) is just round the corner from Anglia Ruskin...
Very best wishes,
keith

The Rosie Maternity Hospital which replaced the old Mill Road hospital was opened at the Addenbrookes Hospital site in 1983, paid for by a donation of £3,000,000 by David Robinson, owner of the TV rental company Robinson Rentals.  Rosie Robinson was his mother.

RIP 1949-10th January 2013

Best Wishes,  Nick.

I had family living at no.76 Mill road way back in 1851. This Mill road was in Little Wilbraham. Is this the same Mill road??

Hi D
Little Wilbraham is a few miles from Cambridge, so its not the same Mill Road posted at the begining of the thread

I have just received my husband's full birth certificate. He will be 81 this year.  He was born at 81a Mill Road Cambridge in March 1939. Both mother and father were living at Green End Road and father a Leading Aircraftsman RAF, which seems to indicate that this address was a maternity home at that date.

Just a footnote to this, Kateinperth, the Cambridgeshire Archives moved from Shire Hall, Cambridge to The Dock, Ely in late November 2019, and only seems to be open now on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.  Sadly gone are the days when I could walk the couple of miles across town and up Castle Hill and visit the old location and do a few lookups for fellow Rootschatters...
