Description:
Previously known as Dalefield Hydro Lilybank was built between 1890 and 1893 under the supervision of GB Barton. It catered for families and visitors as well as patients and was thought of as a hotel as much as a Hydro.
The name had changed by 1906. In 1963 it was taken over by Presentation Convent.
Postmarked 1924.
See http://www.wirksworth.org.uk/X437.htm for more information on the old Hydro.
