History
The hospital was originally established by Robert Biggart and his wife as a holiday home for crippled children.[2] It was designed by Robert Alexander Bryden and built between 1903 and 1905 and then extended in 1910.[2] After joining the National Health Service in 1948, it became a home for the elderly in 1966.[2]
Services
There is a 30-bed day hospital for patients after discharge from acute care and a 15-bed stroke rehabilitation unit which provides support for stroke patients.[1]
gollark: > Description: SCP-2339 is the collective designation for an anomalously large Bombus terrestris (buff-tailed bumblebee) nest and the bees residing within. SCP-2339-1 is the nest itself, measuring nearly 32m across. In comparison, a standard European bumblebee nest has a maximum capacity of 400 bees, and is far smaller. Aside from its size, SCP-2339-1 shows no other anomalous properties.
