Very well researched and explained. Fascinating content. Our favourite bit - your mum’s diary entry at the end! Very sweet and moving.

Gorgeous video - I was born in the Maternity block in 1980 at the N&N. My father cycled there from UEA.

Have very vague memories of being taken to the Jenny Lind Hospital by my Mother sometime in the 1950`s. I think it was an outpatient appointment and believe I had an ear problem. I was able to witness the building of both the General Ward block and the Maternity Block as I lived then at Hanover Road, off Brunswick Road. Fascinating also to stand in the back garden and watch the steeplejacks building the enormous chimney. Any chance John, of a video on the `Golden Triangle`, an area I grew up in?

Thanks Timothy, also for your suggestion. This one is sort of "the edge" of the Golden Triangle - maybe one day I'll venture further in!kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gqeZhdx8zLqXj58.html

Wonderful. Would love a video about the N&N towers and West Norwich hospital.

Thanks. I'll see what I can do. I've had quite a lot of requests so it may be a while. I'm not sure what you mean by N&N Towers...?

I was in the Jenny Lind hospital on Unthank Road twice. First time in 1953 to have adenoids removed and then again in 1955 aged 5 to have a tonsilectomy; so I remember it

I think it's very well remembered by those who spent time there.
