The site selected was open land on the north side of Coxford Road, opposite Southampton General Hospital. [2] The new hospital was designed in the modern style, built in brick and glass and was opened by Princess Anne on 28 March 1981. [3] [4] During the 1980s, c. 5,000 babies were being born there every year. [5]

The hospital was the location for the first two series of Channel 4's One Born Every Minute broadcast in 2010 and 2011. [6] A digital breast screening unit was established at the hospital in September 2013. [7] In April 2019, the hospital was ranked by the US magazine, Newsweek , as one of the best 129 specialist care centres in the world. [8] [9]
