History

The facility, which was designed by William Jacomb Gibbon and Walter Henry Woodroffe as an isolation hospital, was completed in 1889. [1] After one ward was badly damaged by two bombs in November 1940 during the Second World War, it joined the National Health Service in 1948. [2] In the 1960s the hospital became more focused on geriatric work and new facilities were opened by Princess Alexandra in February 1969. [1] In February 2018 the trust announced plans to carry out an extensive redevelopment of the site. [3]
