History

The facility had its origins in the Swansea Union Workhouse which was opened in 1862.[1] A large female infirmary designed by Herbert Wills was added in 1903.[1] It became Mount Pleasant Hospital in 1929 and joined the National Health Service in 1948.[2] After services had transferred to Singleton Hospital, Mount Pleasant Hospital closed in 1995, the site was subsequently sold to Swansea Housing Association and the buildings were converted into accommodation for students in 1999.[3]

gollark: Rust can bind to C perfectly well, it's done a lot.
gollark: Well, then you can have a script interface the build systems together.
gollark: You can actually create, manage and build Rust projects with simple tooling which works easily and without horrible issues, and (almost?) every library uses the same stuff so you can interoperate trivially.
gollark: While strictly speaking you can use Rust and even `rustc` without `cargo`, having it as a first-class thing is EXTREMELY NICE.
