History
The facility, which was commissioned to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee,[1] was designed by Richard Park (1842-1906)[2] and opened in October 1899.[1] Additions included a nurses' home in 1934 and an out-patients' department in 1935.[1] It joined the National Health Service in 1948.[3]
