Rushden Sanatorium
Patients

This Photo was kindly sent to us by Robert Streeton, who tells us that it probably dates from 1939, when his uncle 'Art' was a patient there.

Arthur was born in 1917 and lived at Earls Barton, but sadly died in 1941.

Please can you name the others?

These pictures are from 1959 when Ivy Carr was a patient.

She went there in April 1959, and also got a bout of 'flu and stayed for at least 11 weeks.
