The Preston Royal Infirmary was an acute general hospital in Preston, Lancashire, England. Two remaining buildings are Grade II listed buildings. [1] [2]
The hospital had its origins in a House of Recovery constructed between 1829 and 1833. [1] It was extended by James Hibbert between 1866 and 1870 [3] to create the Preston and County of Lancaster Royal Infirmary; this facility became the Preston and County of Lancaster Queen Victoria Royal Infirmary in 1929. [4] A further two storeys were added to the main block in 1936. [1]
It joined the National Health Service as the Preston Royal Infirmary in 1948 and, after services had transferred to the Royal Preston Hospital, it closed in 1990. [4] Two buildings each gained Grade II listed building status on 7 April 1988, and were subsequently converted for use as student halls of residence. [1] [2]
