History

The facility, which was financed by a gift from Sir Isaac Wilson (1862-1944), a local developer,[1] was opened by the Princess Royal as the Wilson Cottage Hospital in 1928.[2] After one ward was destroyed by a V-1 flying bomb in 1944 during the Second World War, it joined the National Health Service as the Wilson Hospital in 1948.[2] Proposals to redevelop the hospital as a health centre were announced in 2017.[3]
