Aany Information Please

I was born at Gate Burton Hall in 1941. The only information I have is that my mother was born in Louth and later lived in Hull. I think that she was evacuated there during the war. Does anyone have any information regarding the hall being used as a maternity hospital during the war?

Hi,
We run a not for profit local magazine called the Trentside Links. If you go to www.trentsidelinks.org you can access our feature on Gate Burton issue 153 in our archives. We have I believe written a little about the old Hall being a maternity unit.

My grand-mother was evacuated from Walthamstow on the outskirts of London to Gate Burton Hall to give birth to my mother in June 1941. She stayed there for a few weeks and then went to live in one of the local villages for the next 4 years, until my grandfather returned from North Africa at the end of the War, when they returned to Walthamstow.
