Hall Hill Auxiliary Hospital
opened on 21st October 1914 in a property lent and furnished by Mrs
Michaelis. It had 11 beds.
The Hospital was run by the Surrey/46 and /62 Voluntary Aid Detachments, who also ran the Charing Cross Convalescent Home as an auxiliary hospital with 100 beds. Both presumably had closed by 1916 (they are not listed by the British Red Cross Society in 1917).
Present status (September 2011) The 7-bedroomed house is now a private residence. |

Hall Hill was once part of the Tandridge Court estate owned by the reclusive German-born South African millionaire and philanthropist Maximilian Michaelis, who was knighted in 1924. The property, once called Hall Hill Cottage, is now named simply Hall Hill. |
