London, SE18 - Shooters Hill Area
A view of the new (c.1995) entrance into the former Royal Herbert (Military) Hospital site from a public footpath on the opposite side of Shooters Hill Road (the A207), near to its junction with Well Hall Road (the A205). The hospital - in its entirety - was commissioned by Sir Sidney Herbert, Minister of War, who commissioned Florence Nightingale and her nurses to go to the Crimean War and who supported her health-related and care-related reforms for British military personnel at home and abroad. This establishment was created as a restorative facility for veterans of the Crimean War and opened in 1865. It eventually became the British Army's principal orthopaedic centre but finally closed in 1977 having became superfluous to military requirements. By 1995, it had been saved from demolition and had been converted into 228 private apartments known collectively as The Royal Herbert Pavilions.

Woolwich Common, London SE18
This footpath running parallel with Academy Road appears to follow a c-shaped curve here towards the former 130ft high former water tower on the site of the former Brook Hospital, Shooters Hill. In fact the path exits in front of the former Royal Herbert (Military) Hospital site - now private apartments - situated Shooters Hill. On the south-east side of the common (i.e. behind the photographers left shoulder) is the former Royal Military Academy that was built in 1805 to train officer cadets studying for the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers. The former Royal Military Academy site is now home to several hundred private apartments, many within the original military buildings.
