Immediately to the east of the former Cookridge hospital Image was another convalescent hospital built in 1890, by Leeds architects Chorley and Connon. It was given by Mr and Mrs North "for the use of patients of Leeds General Infirmary" in memory of their daughter, Ida. Work is now in progress converting and extending the old building to provide sheltered accommodation for older people. It is listed grade II (list entry 1255593).
