I am also specifically looking for any of the following; Gorleston Cottage Hospital,Hellesdon Norwich,West Norwich Hospital,Southampton Childrens Hospital,Southwold Hospital,Aldeburgh Hospital,Great Yarmouth Naval Hospital,Northgate Hospital Yarmouth,Peterborough Memorial Hospital,etc.

Sorry for the late reply but I have only just joined this site. I have one postcard that may be of interest but is from the USA. Los Angeles County General Hospital, California. It is in pretty good condition with a message on the back. However, the stamp has been removed. I have no idea of the date but, from the rest I have received, would assume it is 1930's. Are you interested in hospitals in the USA? Caroline
