History

The hospital was built in 1862 and opened the following year as Borough Hospital.[1] The name was changed to Birkenhead General Hospital in 1926.[1] From 1948 it was run by the Birkenhead Hospital Management Committee, and after 1974 by the Wirral Area Health Authority.[2] After services were transferred to the newly opened Arrowe Park Hospital, the building ceased to be used in 1982.[2]

gollark: ```To keep with the tradition, our first program in Lua just prints "Hello World": print("Hello World")If you are using the stand-alone Lua interpreter, all you have to do to run your first program is to call the interpreter (usually named lua) with the name of the text file that contains your program. For instance, if you write the above program in a file hello.lua, the following command should run it: prompt> lua hello.lua```What's the problem here?
