Extension to the original 19th century hospital in a Dutch modern style. Extended in 1962 by the same architects. Three substantial interlinked blocks make up this stage of the hospital development. Built to provide a Nurse’s Home, an Administration Department, and an urological unit. The facade to Heytesbury St. is the longest and quite severe with only a break from the regularity at the ground floor of the northern end.
