I was born there the year after your aunt. It is actually St Luke's Hospital, Horton Lane, where half the population of Bradford was born. Of course it is still there. I recently returned to St Luke's to visit an elderly cousin who was in there for a few weeks - the first time I'd been back since my emergence into the world. Pictures wouldn't mean much to you, though, since it looks just like a million other hospitals.
