I am interested in finding details of patients in Petworth Cottage Hospital circa 1919, Sussex, I have a photo of my grandfather in the grounds and I am trying to find out if he was a patient there

Thank you in anticipation

Thank you Hillhurst, it is over 100 years so I might be lucky

Feels like a holiday in Sussex coming on, have been there before if it is the one in Chichester

Blast from the past  I had my tonsils removed them in the late 1950's!
