Holt old infirmary info please
« on: Friday 09 June 23 08:41 BST (UK) »
Good morning all.

Looking for any information on an old  infirmary building in Holt Norfolk, as my 90 year old mum remembers being in there for some illness  for a while when she was very young approx 6 years old, is there any pictures, information or records etc, as she often talks about it.... Thanks for any help

This one?

added: this seems to have been an open air sanatorium for the treatment of tuberculosis – does that fit?

added: looking at old OS maps, this sanatorium was in the same place as the current Kelling Hospital
