Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
Fulham Borough Council Maternity Home opened in Parsons Green in 1937, replacing the maternity ward at Fulham Hospital, St. Dunstan's Road.
Following the creation of the National Health Service (NHS) in 1948 the home came under the control of the Fulham and Kensington Hospital Management Committee. The Committee reported to the South West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board.
In 1962 the home became known as Fulham Maternity Hospital. The hospital later became incorporated into the West London Hospital and closed around 1973 when Charing Cross Hospital opened on the site of Fulham Hospital, whose maternity ward the hospital had replaced in 1937.
