The temporary hospital referred to was at Becketts Park in Headingley - please see EPW015917; there is quite a bit of info on leodis.org about this use of the college buildings during and after the war. I had not previously known about the association of both places with WW1.	spugs	Thursday 28th of August 2014 03:47:06 PM
