fever

Was just a quick visit to belvoir park hospital so didn't get much photos hopefully stay longer at next visit little bit about the site opened as the Purdysburn Fever Hospital in 1906. The facility became known as Montgomery House in 1953 and it then became Belvoir Park Hospital in the 1960s...

This interesting find has had many uses but is still known to this day as a Fever Hospital. Opened in 1902 as a fever isolation hospital- treating illnesses such as scarlet fever, diphtheria and meningitis. The Fifeshire Typhoid epidemic in 1903 ensured that the hospital was full to capacity...
