EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the entrance to Princess Mary's Hospital in Margate, Kent, which opened its doors in 1898. Originally known as Eastcliff House, the site was acquired by the Metropolitan Asylums Board as a seaside hospital for London children suffering from tubercular infections of the spine, bones, and joints. The decision to establish a hospital by the sea was based on the belief that the fresh air and mild climate of Margate could aid in the treatment of these debilitating conditions. The image shows the grand entrance gates, adorned with intricate ironwork and the inscription "Princess Mary's Hospital," inviting visitors and patients into the grounds. The hospital was designed to provide a caring and nurturing environment for the children, many of whom came from impoverished backgrounds and had been previously housed in workhouses or asylums. The 1890s saw a surge in the understanding of tuberculosis (TB) and its various forms, with the disease affecting both the lungs and bones and joints. TB was a major public health concern during this time, and the establishment of hospitals like Princess Mary's was a significant step forward in providing specialized care for those afflicted by the disease. The hospital's location on Wilderness Road, with its stunning views of the sea, provided a sense of tranquility and hope for the children undergoing treatment. The Victorian-era architecture of the hospital, with its ornate details and grandeur, stands as a testament to the importance placed on medical care and the belief that even the most vulnerable members of society deserved compassionate and effective treatment.
