Hackney In The East End Of London
A Memory of London.
My nana was born in Hackney in 1907. She was born to an unmarried mother in the Salvation maternity hospital for unmarried mothers on Mare Street, Ivy House to be precise. She stayed in Brent House mother and baby home just around the corner.
Does any one out there know of anyone else who was born in this hospital?
I would like an old photograph of Brent House as it was at the time when it was a home for unmarried mothers. I have a photograph of the building as it is now, I was in Hackney at the beginning of this year and took a photogragh of Brent House. It is now luxury flats, and it was refurbished.
Please can anyone help? I would be very grateful.
Karen.
