Kidderminster Treatment Centre
This was once a fully fledged district general hospital serving the Wyre Forest but has been downgraded to a treatment centre and minor injuries unit although still comprising a very substantial estate that is not fully encompassed in this view. A major political battle was fought over this and Dr Richard Taylor a former consultant physician was elected as an independent member of parliament on a save our hospital ticket. He was so popular he was elected for a second term even when the original reason was gone.

Kidderminster Treatment Centre - boiler house
Contains three FKI Babcock Robey dual fuelled single burner, three pass packaged boilers exhausting up a substantial concrete chimney. The silver vessel just in front is the blowdown receiver for flashing off the blowdown water. I think it also flashes off steam from the gauge glass assemblies as they need to be tested regularly and that involves releasing water/steam under pressure.
