History

The facility has its origins in the Bowthorpe Road Workhouse which was completed in 1859.[1] An infirmary was added in around 1880 and a nurses' home (which survives as Woodlands House) was completed in 1903.[1] It became the Bowthorpe Road Public Assistance Institution in 1930 and, although the main building was destroyed by bombing during the Baedeker Blitz of the Second World War, the hospital joined the National Health Service as the West Norwich Hospital in 1948.[2] After a programme of investment it became the Norwich Community Hospital in 2005.[3]

gollark: <@205756960249741312> Also, I got```terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Poco::JSON::JSONException' what(): JSON Exceptionfish: 'craftos' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)```after installing PotatOS in CraftOS-PC. I think PotatOS's random-bytestring labels confuse it.
gollark: I mean, it allows arbitrary filesystem read/write access right now (restricted by OS permissions)...
gollark: Maybe also add an option to make all mounts read-only only?
gollark: CraftOS-PC uses a hotkey and `term.screenshot`.
gollark: CraftOS-PC also has nice stuff like extra graphics modes and screenshot capability.
