History

The facility has its origins in the Machynlleth Union Workhouse which opened in 1860. [1] After serving as a Red Cross Hospital during the First World War, [2] it was converted into a hospital for tuberculosis patients, re-opening as the King Edward VII Memorial Hospital in 1920. [1] It joined the National Health Service as the Machynlleth Chest Hospital in 1948 and subsequently evolved to become a community hospital. [1] An upgrade to the hospital costing £15 million, including the incorporation of the local GP surgery, community dentistry and adult mental health services, was completed in 2023. [3] [4]
