Refurbishment of hospital building - Plymouth
One of the old buildings of the Scott Isolation Hospital undergoing refurbishment. The adjacent site is now a business park so perhaps the building will be converted to business use or even become apartments.

Gateway to Scott Business Park, North Prospect - Plymouth
Dating from the late 19th century the site previously contained the Devonport Borough Isolation Hospital, renamed the Scott Isolation Hospital in memory of Captain Robert Falcon Scott the explorer in 1955. The hospital grew from one catering for 24 patients suffering diseases such as Smallpox and Scarlet Fever to one meeting the needs of 170 patients. With advances in medicine and the new Derriford Hospital catering for most medical needs of the local population it had ceased to function as a hospital by the late 1980's. A Child Development Centre was opened in 1991 and the site has developed to hold a business park as well as other organisations of a welfare nature such as a Healthy Living Centre and Plymouth Heartbeat, charity providing cardiac health support, as well as light engineering works and office facilities.

Dingle Road, North Prospect - Plymouth
Following World War I a slum clearance programme began in Plymouth with council housing being constructed in the North Prospect/Swilly area of the town. By 1928 802 council houses had been constructed here. Despite its leafy avenues the area gained a fierce reputation over the years as one of the poorest and least desirable areas of the town in which to find oneself or to live in. Plymouth City Council is currently planning to redevelop the area, demolishing the existing housing stock and replacing it with modern accommodation. It is likely that more homes will be made available because better use could be made of the land area - that is smaller gardens!
