- Extracted from the Rusholme and Victoria Park Archive
When WW1 started in 1914 the 2nd Western General Hospital was established in Manchester where its HQ was Central High School for Boys, Whitworth Street. Initially 520 beds were provided at this site but during the duration of the war a total of 25,000 beds came under the one command. This huge number of hospital beds were scattered throughout Manchester and surrounding towns, becoming the largest military hospital in the UK
from Wikipedia
Vernon Park Military Hospital
At the end of March 1915 four Council Schools in Stockport were converted into Military Hospitals; Hollywood Park, St George’s, Vernon Park and Alexandra Park. The children had to go part-time to make room. On 29th September 1915 the schools received 300 wounded from the Battle of Loos. By December 1915 they provided enough beds for 750 patients.
