Originally built as the Leeds Union Workhouse, this later became part of St James's Hospital (known as Jimmys locally), and now houses the Thackray Medical Museum - complete with an old operating theatre and a Victorian slum with smells! The modern building behind it is the hospital's Clinical Sciences Building. See the museum website http://www.thackraymedicalmuseum.co.uk/ See also Image]
