Whipps Cross - Stories from the War Hospital

Whipps Cross University Hospital in the London Borough of Waltham Forest has an illustrious past spanning the whole of the 20th century: from it's earliest origins as the West Ham Infirmary in 1903, to the birth of such well known figures such as Jonathon Ross, David Beckham and Richard Ayoade. At no period, however, was the hospital more urgently needed than it was during the First World War, 1914-1918, and to commemorate the centenary of the First World War, we took a closer look at the history behind the hospital.
