Mortimer West End, Laneswood & Queen Wilhelmina: A memory of Mortimer

Mortimer West End, Laneswood & Queen Wilhelmina

A Memory of Mortimer.

I worked at Laneswood, Mortimer West End 1964/65 when it was a children's home run by Berkshire County Council. I was told that Queen Wilhelmina stayed there when she first came to England from the Netherlands in 1940 and was there for some time.
