Private hospital run by Spire Healthcare (but closed in 2015, as too expensive to modernise) "The hospital ... was founded when William Lidderdale, then governor of the Bank of England, bought a building near Regent's Park after being inspired by stories of Florence Nightingale's heroics during the Crimean War. The hospital was moved to Hythe in 1962 and was run by nuns until the 1970s." https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/spire-to-shut-st-saviours-hospital-23wpwrz8p3v
