Leicester General Hospital, Evington, Leicester
The front elevation of Hadley Hall, the oldest part of the hospital and the original main entrance. It was the main administrative block of the North Evington Poor Law Infirmary (1905-1930), a hospital that cost of £79,575. It was designed to accommodate 512 patients and was considered ultra-modern and one of the largest and finest infirmaries in England. It was apparently known by the local people as “The Palace on the Hill”. It had 16 strictly segregated wards, each one named after a municipal ward in the city. It was surrounded by 6ft high spiked railings with gates were kept locked requiring visitors to apply for a pass in order to be allowed into the grounds or buildings. Later, the complex became known as Leicester City General Hospital (1930 - c.1948). It is now known as Leicester General Hospital and it hosts the headquarters of University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust (UHL). It is three miles east of Leicester city centre and has approximately 680 beds.
