History

The hospital was designed by Alexander Ellis and opened as the Buchan Combination Poorhouse and Maud Home in 1867. ^{[1] [2]} It joined the National Health Service in 1948 but after the introduction of Care in the Community in the early 1980s, it went into a period of decline and, following a consultation by Aberdeenshire Community Health Partnership in 2005, ^[3] it closed in October 2008. ^{[4] [5]}
