Hi all
Was wondering if any off you knew what the maternity hospital was called that opened in 1948 in Weymouth Dorset.I was told and am now kicking myself as i cant remember .my x mother-in-law told me but she sadly died last year aged 86 ,that my sister-in-law Judith Llewellin was the first one to give birth i was wondering also if there was a write up in the papers etc .
Thank you Avril

I've googled and it appears to be called Weymouth and District Hospital.
