Mothers and babies gathered outside St. Helen's Hospital, Sydenham
Mothers and babies gathered outside St. Helen's Hospital, Sydenham
[1909]
The hospital, a wooden building in Durham Street, Sydenham, had been opened about two years earlier. It was a birthing place for the wives of working men. The hospital was, like other hospitals, named St. Helen's to commemorate the birthplace of the recently deceased Premier, Richard John Seddon (1845-1906).
