A First World War nurse who cared for injured soldiers at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire, the first wartime country house hospital, has been identified for the first time, English Heritage announced today (24 November). Researchers at the charity were contacted by Canadian Carol Jephson who recognised her grandmother Olive Buller in photographs of the hospital shown on BBC’s Antiques Roadshow. English Heritage had put a call out in 2018 and colourised a selection of photographs in the hope that relatives of the nurses might come forward.
