Background
History
Planning for the hospital, a World War I memorial began in 1919 and the foundation stone for the facility was laid by Major General John Seely, Lord Lieutenant of Hampshire, in January 1928. The building, which was designed by Vernon-Inkpen and Rogers, was opened in July 1929 with 12–14 beds. Another extension was built in 1939 and the hospital had 23–25 beds. As of 2013 the nursery rhyme tiles had been preserved.
