A view towards the Gate 1 entrance/exit. On the right is one of last remaining examples of a pavilion ward (pavilion being derived from Latin for butterfly). This building, that would originally have stood well away from other buildings, was used for patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Note the steps underneath the windows that would have allowed relatives see their loved ones without direct contact. Today the building is used for Patients' Records.
