Hi all,

Looking to help out Sheffield History member @chaz with this enquiry


Looking for any information about 'Fairthorn' in Dore, Sheffield

I think it was a convalescence home?

Does anyone have any photos/info about this place?

Hi,

When I was a kid at Gleadless PS in the late 50's/early 60's we had a Fairthorn Flag Day to raise money for the project. In those days Fairthorn was a rest home for 'under privileged and delicate children'. I'm not sure when it stopped being a rest home but as I understand it, it's now an eldery persons home?

Cheers,

Wazzie Worrall
