A STAFF nurse at a Bridlington hospital has dedicated the latest in a long line of local history books to his colleagues in the medical profession.

Mike Hitches’ new book, Scarborough Through Time, includes images of Scarborough Hospital, past and present, including images from the Hospital’s officially opening ceremony which took place 75 years ago.

He said: “I have worked at the trust for seven years, both at Scarborough and Bridlington Hospitals, and I really enjoyed looking at photos from the trust’s archive. I will be starting work on Bridlington Through Time next year so if anyone has any pictures of old Bridlington I would love to see them.”

Scarborough Through Time’ is Mr Hitches’ 27th book.
