This photo shows Sheffield’s very first motor ambulance outside Lodge Moor Hospital. At the wheel is Mr George Fox, just 20 years old, who had previously driven the horse-drawn fever ambulance before becoming the city’s very first motor ambulance driver.

The vehicle, an Argyll, marked a huge step forward in medical care and emergency response. Standing proudly beside it are two nurses and Dr Muir Head, reflecting the dedicated team who worked at Lodge Moor. Sheffield’s isolation hospital was built in response to the smallpox epidemic of 1887–88.
