History
[edit]The hospital was first housed in a Church Street facility in 1896.[2] In 1901 that was replaced by a more permanent facility in Grape Street in 1901.[2] A new facility built to commemorate lives lost in the First World War was built at Springhill and opened by Princess Mary in 1925.[3] The memorial hospital was demolished and replaced by a modern facility which was opened by Princess Margaret in 1979.[3] In February 2018 it was agreed to redevelop the hospital site at a cost of £12 million into a "health and wellbeing hub" with an urgent care centre and 19 inpatient beds.[4]
