Walton memories

Walton Hospital

The year I was born at Walton Hospital.  The war was still on and as I was growing up I remember my mum saying to me just after I was born there was a bomb drop on the Maternity Unit at the hospital and all the new mothers & babies had to be transferred to Southport.
