Aberayron Poor Law Union was the first in Cardiganshire to open a workhouse, which was built in 1839-40, by William Green, to designs of George Wilkinson. It was converted for use as a hospital for injured soldiers in 1914 and became a cottage hospital in 1930. The hospital closed in 2019, when the new Integrated Care Centre opened at the Minaeron site, Vicarage Hill. The building was demolished in 2021. Side: Image
