EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative aerial photograph, the Nottingham City Hospital and Sherwood Hospital at Bagthorpe stand proudly against the backdrop of Nottingham city in the mid-1950s. The image captures the upper left of centre of Nottingham City Hospital, with its expansive grounds and modern buildings, while Sherwood Hospital is visible to the left of centre, its red-roofed structures arranged in a more compact layout. This scene holds a rich historical significance, as both institutions were originally established in 1903: Nottingham Union Infirmary, the city hospital, and Valebrook Lodge, which later became Sherwood Hospital. The latter started its life as a workhouse, a place of last resort for the poor and destitute, a stark reminder of the socio-economic conditions of the Edwardian era. The image offers a glimpse into the past, painting a picture of two distinct yet interconnected institutions. The City Hospital, with its focus on medical care and health, stands in contrast to the former workhouse, which later transformed into a hospital, symbolizing the evolving approach towards the welfare of the community. The photograph also highlights the urban landscape of Nottingham during the 1950s, with its terraced housing, industrial areas, and expansive green spaces. As we look at this image, we are transported back in time, witnessing the history of these institutions and the city they serve. This aerial view of Nottingham City Hospital and Sherwood Hospital at Bagthorpe is a poignant reminder of the past, showcasing the transformation of healthcare and social welfare institutions over the decades. It is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the community, and a reminder of the importance of providing quality care for all, regardless of their socio-economic background.
