Mickleover, Pastures Hospital c1955
Ref: M220051
I did my nurse training at Pastures Hospital back in 1981, and I think the name of this ward was Ridgeway (but I may be wrong) - it was a rehabilitation ward then. Sadly, these wards are no longer there, but I have some great memories.

In the photo of Mickleover Village 1955, things still hadn't changed by 1965 when my mum used to walk us to the village most days to buy food. I remember there was a shop keeper regularly standing in the doorway on the right of the photo. The shop to the left of that, with the bike outside was the Co op, which was the biggest food store in Mickleover back then - way before Hillards arrived (now Tesco's I think). Close by everyone will remember Oliver & Winspears Sweet Shop, where we all bought our milk chews, fruit salad chews and butterscotch after school.
