Hoe Park Nursing Home, Plymouth

[PWN]

Help please? Can anyone please tell me where in Plymouth the Hoe Park Nursing Home/Hospital was? I am looking at 1930's era and presuming it no longer exists. Thanks PWN

However in the 1939 register, only the nursing and domestic staff are resident at number 9. Possibly the nursing home was somewhere else close by. Other newspaper references at that time quote the address as Citadel Road.

Thank you so much for your help. This has answered my question and gives me more to research.

I know this is an oldIer map but it shows which is Hoe Terrace, facing the park and it also shows that on the corner of Citadel Rd and Lockyer St there was a Devon and Cornwall Orphan Asylum (female) such places were often repurposed at later dates as other organisations such as nursing homes and/or hospitals.

Thank you for the link to the old map. This has allowed me to pinpoint exactly where Hoe Park Terrace was. I compared the old map with google street map now and located Sussex Street which is still there. I have no personal knowledge of this area but I am assuming that a great deal was damaged in the Blitz and has been cleared and reconfigured and rebuilt. I am very grateful for your help and input. Thank you.
