Quex House with car
View of the front of Quex House. Possibly taken just before the Hospital opened in mid October 1914. A small car is parked at the front. To the left of the main part of the house is the single storey drawing room which housed A Ward of the Hospital, to the left of that is the Winter Garden which was used as the Hospital Mess. The Quex Park VAD Hospital opened on 15 October 1914 and closed on 31 January 1919. The hospital was run by Kent/178, the Birchington Detachment. The Commandant was Hannah Powell-Cotton (1881-1964), wife of Major Percy HG Powell-Cotton (1866-1940) of Quex Park, founder of the Powell-Cotton Museum. Date: 1918
