Holmfirth Memorial Hospital

A Memory of Holmfirth.

I was born at this hospital, October 1966, I always thought it was a lovely building. I had to return here about twelve years later to have a tetanus injection after being bitten by a dog. I had a paper round on Dunford Road; I was cutting through the Underbank Club and their alsation dog took a fancy to me, but the most suprising was when I got to the hospitl the nurse annonced that I was one of their babies. At the time I just wanted to leave as soon as possible, but I'm really proud that I was born at Holmfirth Memorial Hospital. I know it's no longer a hospital, I believe it's an old persons rest home - it's a beautiful building with wonderful grounds. I don't live in Holmfirth anymore and have not done for a while now, but I do visit family.
