Title: Jaffray Hospital Erdington
Post by: AileenP on Monday 09 April 12 23:10 BST (UK)

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has any information on the Jaffray Hospital at Wood End Lane, Erdington?

I discovered that one of my ancestors was a patient there on the 1901 Census.  He was from Rock Worcester on the Shropshire Border so this place is quite a distance from there.

Thank you very much for your help.   It was a beautiful building too shame it has now been knocked down.
