EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the North Middlesex Hospital at Tanners End in Edmonton, Middlesex, a building that holds significant historical importance in both the local and national contexts of the 20th century. Erected in 1910, the hospital began its life as the infirmary of the Edmonton Union workhouse, a facility designed to provide care for the poor and destitute. During the tumultuous period of the First World War, the hospital transformed into Edmonton Military Hospital, offering medical care and solace to the brave soldiers who returned from the battlefields, wounded and weary. The red brick building with its long, row-like appearance stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of community care and resilience during a time of great upheaval. The North Middlesex Hospital at Tanners End is a poignant reminder of the historical interplay between poverty, housing, and healthcare in the early 20th century. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the medical advancements and social progress that have taken place since its inception. As we reflect on the hospital's rich history, it is essential to acknowledge the crucial role that institutions like these played in providing care and support to those in need. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of medical care, social welfare, and the indomitable human spirit, particularly during times of war and hardship.
