Midwife nurses an old tradition back to life

   Posted by: R Haasch   in Midwifery

FOR mothers of a certain age, the name Westow Croft will bring back fond memories as the place where they brought their children into the world.

The maternity home closed in the mid-70s as thinking moved towards mums giving birth in hospitals, and the property eventually became a private house.

Moving on three decades and the house has once again regained some of its maternity status as the home of independent midwife Anne Adamson.
