History
The facility has its origins in an infectious diseases hospital, designed by Speirs & Co. and completed in 1897.[1] The hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948. New facilities were procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 2004.[2] The new building, which was designed by HLM Architects and built by Balfour Beatty at a cost of £19.2 million,[3] opened in 2007.[4]

gollark: The antibiotic thing is bad for *people* in the long run.
gollark: We probably could make food more efficiently and without the antibiotic mess.
