EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Haven of Healing: The 2nd Southern Hospital, Southmead, Bristol, During the First World War" This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of the 2nd Southern Hospital in Southmead, Bristol. Originally built between 1900 and 1902 as a workhouse for the Barton Regis Union, the site later served as a military hospital during the First World War. The buildings, with their imposing architecture and grand exterior, once housed those in need, providing shelter for the poor and infirm. In this image, military personnel and dedicated nursing staff stand proudly outside the hospital, their expressions reflecting a sense of duty and commitment to the cause of healing and care. The buildings, now repurposed for the treatment of wounded soldiers, stand as a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the community during a time of great need. The 1910s saw the hospital transform once again, this time becoming Southmead Hospital, a vital institution that would continue to provide essential medical care for generations to come. The image serves as a reminder of the hospital's rich history, its role in the community, and the unwavering dedication of its staff during the war years. The 2nd Southern Hospital, with its grand facade and historic significance, stands as a symbol of hope and healing, a beacon of medical care that has endured through the test of time. The image, taken during the war years, captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the remarkable story of this remarkable institution.
