History

The hospital, which replaced several other local hospitals, was built between 1984 and 1985 and was officially opened by Princess Alexandra in May 1985. In May 2018 it was announced that the urgent care centre at the hospital would no longer be available but instead the hospital would offer a GP-led healthcare service.
