Founded in 1875 as the Cheyne Hospital for Sick and Incurable Children, it cared for children suffering from chronic or incurable spinal or hip conditions. Beginning at 46 Cheyne Walk, it had expanded into No. 47 by the following year. Later, Nos. 59-61 were acquired and in 1888, demolished so that this new hospital could be built on the site. The building was sold in 1996 and became residential accommodation. Perspective view published in The Building News, June 8th 1888.
