Salford Royal Hospital

A Memory of Salford.

Re: Hilda Smith and Salford Royal Hospital. I was a patient in Salford Royal Hospital in January 1963 and remember a lovely nurse called " Staff Nurse Ramsbottom". I expect she went on to be a Sister. Maybe you remember her if she was there when you were. I was born in Ordsall in Moorhouse street in 1950. I have wonderful memories of my childhood, playing all the games we used to play, kick can, treasure Hunt, Robbers Knock. We used to climb over the wall at Ordsall Hall looking for the white lady! IThe grounds were all overgrown in those days and it was really spooky, we used to scare ourselves to death! I went to Mount Carmel School from 1955 till 1965 when we went to Sacred Heart,I was only there for a few months though before i left.We used to play for hours in Ordsall Park when i was little. I will never forget my childhood in Ordsall and am very proud to be a Salfordian.

Ann do you remember me? Angela mcdonnell we were in the same class at Mount Carmel mount.

Hello Ann, Do you mean the Old Salford Royal or the one that was called Hope Hospital. I was a nurse at Hope in 1963 and my maiden name was Ramsbottom. I don't think there would be to many nurses with that name.
