A Memory of Combe Down.

On my original birth cert the above is listed as my place of birth. I was adopted but it seems born in Bath. I have always wanted to see where I was born - alas it is too late but I hope I have located the spot. I would love to hear from anyone who has a similar experience or who has a little more information.

My grandmother Gertrude Allingham was matron of the convalescent home Combe Down. I am not sure of the dates but it must have been around 1947 because my mother was married in Bath Abbey
