The hospital, located to the NW of Llantrisant, was built during the 1990s and officially opened in 2000. Unlike many older hospitals in cramped urban locations, this hospital benefits from being built on a large greenfield site. There are spacious car parks on the west side of the site, separated from the hospital buildings by the River Ely. Two footbridges http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2263788 give access across the river. The site also benefits from regular bus services which stop a few metres from the main entrance.
