The Gate 1 entrance and exit to City Hospital on Hucknall Road is the one nearest to Arnold Road (B6004). This was the entrance to Bagthorpe Hospital (later called Heathfield Hospital). This isolation facility was opened on 15th July 1892 by the Mayor of Nottingham. Miss Dickinson, the hospital’s first Matron and Dr Wynne, the Assistant Medical Officer were in attendance. The red-brick building on the right housed its administrative offices, whereas the actual clinical buildings were further in, where the new maternity unit now stands.
