EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the entrance of the Auxiliary Military Hospital in Keighley, West Yorkshire, during its pivotal role in the First World War. Originally built as the Keighley Union Workhouse Infirmary on Fell Lane in 1871, this Victorian edifice was transformed into a hospital to cater to the influx of wounded soldiers from the Great War. The building, which later became St. John's Hospital, stands majestically against a backdrop of a quiet, tree-lined road. The entrance, adorned with intricate stonework and a grand archway, invites us into a world that was both a symbol of poverty and a beacon of hope during a time of great need. The pavement outside is filled with the footprints of those seeking medical care, a testament to the thousands of men and women who passed through its doors during the war years. The transformation of this workhouse into an auxiliary military hospital was a reflection of the changing times. The military, in collaboration with the local community, came together to provide care for the wounded soldiers, many of whom were far from home and in dire need of medical attention. The hospital's historical significance is further highlighted by the fact that it was operational during the war years from 1916 onwards. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the important role that hospitals played in providing care and support to those in need. The image, with its intricate details and historical significance, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in military history, Victorian architecture, or the social history of West Yorkshire.
