Description

A group of about fifteen soldiers stand outside of The Commons, a grand house with a conservatory in Northam, Devon. Four of them sit in an automobile. Some of the men are wearing 'hospital blues' suggesting that the house served as a convalescent hospital for servicemen during the First World War. The house no longer stands and at various points in its history served as the junior boarding house of Stella Maris convent and as a guest house.
