History

The hospital has its origins in the Dungannon Union Workhouse and Infirmary which was designed by George Wilkinson and opened in 1842.[1] A fever hospital was added in 1846.[1] The infirmary evolved to become South Tyrone Hospital and a red brick tower block was erected on the site in the 1960s.[2]
