Projects - Cuerden Hall Auxiliary Military Hospital
& Local Medical Services in the Great War
Cuerden Hall is a former stately mansion situated near Bamber Bridge, Preston. There has been a house on the site since the late seventeenth century. Reginald Arthur Tatton inherited the hall from his uncle, Thomas Townely Parker in 1906. During the First World War Tatton adapted the Hall for use as an infirmary for troops, and between 1 May 1915 and 8 June 1917 it was known as Cuerden Hall Auxiliary Hospital. The drawing rooms, with the Tatton family’s collection of old masters and portraits still adorning the walls, were turned into wards and furnished with beds, bed linen and equipment, whilst the parkland and gardens provided an area for convalescence for the soldiers, enjoying such activities as boating on the lake, haymaking, and picnicking. There were also trips to the Tatton family’s other house nearby, Astley Hall.

The admission and discharge book for the hospital can be found at Lancashire Archives. It provides basic personal details, some service details and the treatments of all the men who were treated at the hospital from 1915 to 1919. Many of the men treated were in various stages of their convalescence. Not all were shrapnel or guns shot wounds. There are many cases of treatment for common ailments such as haemorrhoids and catarrh.
The book shows the admittance and discharge date and the state of the man when discharged and whether they went back to duty. The name of the doctor treating is also given. This is one of a number of documents relating to Cuerden Hall in the archives. An example page from the book can be seen on the right. Where we have not been able to decipher the remarks we have inserted a question mark. |
