The hospital opened in March 1885 in a building which had originally been known as Sandfield House. [1] The Raleigh Bicycle Company was founded on the same street, just two years later, in 1887. [2]

In the 1894 White's Directory of Nottinghamshire the following was listed in relation to the hospital:

The Samaritan Hospital for women in Raleigh Street was founded in 1885 for in-patients, and a department for out-patients at 5 Broad Street, during which time to December. 31, 1892, 16,278 patients have received medical advice.
