St Pancras Female Orphanage

History

The orphanage was established to care for female orphans in the local area in 1776.[1] It was located in Hampstead Road where its premises were completely rebuilt to a design by E. W. Hudson in 1904.[1] After the trustees of the orphanage vacated the building, the former orphanage was acquired by the National Temperance Hospital for use as an annex in 1945.[2] The ground floor was subsequently converted for medical use.[3] Following the closure of the National Temperance Hospital in 1990, the former orphanage became the home of the Margarete Centre which provides support to sufferers of substance abuse.[4]
