I can remember the gateposts and the land being over grown for many years. When I was a child I used to go with my Mum to look after the family graves at the Dill Hall cemetery and we used to walk past that place where the gateposts were.
Anyone else out there remember any more details.?

I knew it was NHS of some sort, and recall the original plan was for maternity, I suppose it is used for all sorts now.
My vague recollection comes from attending the Girls High school nearby from 1952 to 1958, and so walking past it fairly often.
PS You know how bus stops seem to retain the name of a long since gone landmark for a while after - I remember the bus stop being named 'Ingledene'
