The Gooseberry Bush

The Gooseberry Bush These Licensed Premises were built in 1984, on part of the site occupied by Nottingham Women's Hospital. The hospital had replaced a Victorian mansion, called Southfield House. The first patients arrived in January 1930. The last baby born here was in January 1981. The hospital closed, with the site then partly cleared for The Gooseberry Bush, named after the place where babies were said to arrive.
