Welcome to Heatherwood in picture. The following page carries some photo's of the Social Hall.
The construction of the hospital in 1922, did not show the social hall as part of the original pictures. This was constructed later, according to a press article in 1949 the new hall is mentioned.
The surrounding forestry came close to the side of the admin building, where later the social hall was added.
