Converted clock tower
The Lodge Moor Hospital buildings have been demolished to make way for a residential estate known as Redmires Close and all that remains from the past is this tower which would appear to have been converted into flats.

Lodge Moor Hospital Tower
Lodge Moor Hospital was built in the 1880's and for over a hundred years it served the people of Sheffield - sometimes known as "The Fever Hospital". Its construction on the edge of the city close to windy moors reflects a Victorian belief that fresh air was helpful for recuperation from illness. The hospital site is now home to a large private housing estate.

Sheffield in the 1980s - Medieval Jousting at Lodge Moor Fete, 1981
The Fete took place on the playing fields next to The Sportsman pub. In the background is the old Lodge Moor 'Isolation' or 'Fever' Hospital (1888-1994), before it was closed and turned into a housing estate.

Sheffield - S10 (Lodge Moor)
The water tower of the former Lodge Moor Hospital as seen from near the former main entrance. (Most former employers tended to refer to the tower as “The Clock Tower” because of its clocks, although its primary function was to store water for the hospital). The tower itself was not built until 1905. The whole site is now an up-market housing estate and is still (!) situated at an altitude of 280 metres (919 ft) above sea level. In addition, the tower - that now houses several apartments - is approximately 25 metres (75 ft) taller, making it visible from up to 4-5 miles away.
The hospital was established in response to the smallpox epidemic in Sheffield (1887-88) and was soon developed to treat other infectious diseases too. Eventually medical, surgical and spinal injuries patients were also cared for here and the Sheffield School of Nursing also had an education centre on site.
