Historic Environment Scotland (www.historicenvironment.scot) has an interesting blog post written by Jess Lydon on the topic of Scottish Women's Hospitals in the First World, available at https://blog.historicenvironment.scot/2021/05/scottish-womens-hospitals/.
The article provides a concise overview of the Scottish Women's Hospitals movement which started in 1914, and within which over a thousand women has served by the war's conclusion. It includes discussion on the hospital work carried out in France and in Serbia, as well as a background to how the hospitals were established and funded.
