The former Royal Alexandra Hospital has now been converted into flats. The original hospital opened in 1868 but moved to this purpose built site in 1881 where it remained until moved again to a new modern building to the rear of the Royal Sussex County Hospital. There were fears the building would be demolished, however, the main building has been retained and converted into flats. The extensions the hospital acquired over the years have gone with new flats built to replace them.
