Full Description

Former site of of hospital, depicted as a single rectangular roofed building and shown on the 6" & 25" 2nd ed Ordnance Survey map sheets (1901) and annotated 'Infectious Diseases'. The irregular northern boundary and current AP's suggest this site may have been occupied prior to the hospital development and was likely later used for stock management. A site visit would be beneficial.
