Baginton Fields Hostel was first build for
the young Dutch Refugee children, who came and stayed at many
different hostels throughout the country
[The
Dutch children's story].
Funding for the hostel was in part from
Her
Royal Highness Princess Juliana of Holland and the Board of
Health.
The hostel was later home to many who came from all corners of the world
during and after World War Two to start life here in Coventry. Many of
these are now leading figures in the City's community.
