Birkenhead General Hospital (known as Birkenhead Borough Hospital until 1926) was a hospital situated on Park Road North, between Prince Edward Street and Livingstone Street, in Birkenhead, England.
The hospital was built in 1862 and opened the following year as Borough Hospital. [1] The name was changed to Birkenhead General Hospital in 1926. [1] From 1948 it was run by the Birkenhead Hospital Management Committee, and after 1974 by the Wirral Area Health Authority. [2] After services were transferred to the newly opened Arrowe Park Hospital, the building ceased to be used in 1982. [2]
