That whole area was covered with Nissen Huts and military playing fields up until at least the 1970s and probably until about the time the first Cross Harbour Tunnel was built.

War Memorial Hospital / Royal Navy Hospital [1932- ]

Submitted by David on Mon, 2009-04-06 16:30

The War Memorial Hospital opened on this site on Wednesday, 16th March 1932 [1].

The hospital has been demolished, and a housing development now stands in its place - though "its foundation stone remains" [2].
