About this objectPhotograph of Thomas Bellamy House surrounded by construction work. At the bottom of the photograph is the roof of a red car.

Upon donation this photograph was attatched to a white A4 sized piece of paper and marked as figure 4. and given the caption of "The Old Hitchin Hospital (Listed building)". Reflecting perhaps how it was presented as part of the project.
