Thanks

There's no mention in the Hospital Records Database of any surviving patient records coverng 1918.

i have an aunt born there 1924
but cant find out what happened to her

are there any records of what happened to the babies

There may be something in the admission & discharge registers. I would advise contacting the London Metropolitan Archives.

Does your aunt's birth certificate suggest that she may have been adopted?

You may hit difficulties because 1924 is before the start of formal adoption procedures.
