HERITAGE PLUS Posted 9 December , 2009 Share Posted 9 December , 2009 Lyn I believe (but could be wrong) that this was the Parsis TB Sanitorium situated on Cumballa Hill, Bombay (Mumbai) which had previously been used as a War Hospital during the South African (Boer) War. http://www.imagesofasia.com/html/india/parsi-sanatorium.html Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjharris Posted 2 November , 2011 Share Posted 2 November , 2011 Sorry it's years later, but one photo is here: http://cas.awm.gov.au/item/A01180 the hospital was on Malabar Hill, along with an officers' hospital. In 1917-18 many Australian nurses served in this hospital, replacing British regular nurses who went to Mesopotamia. cheers Kirsty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
