EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the Smallpox Hospital in Kings Cross, London, as it stood in 1875. The hospital, which opened in 1793-94, was a crucial institution in the fight against smallpox, a highly contagious and often fatal disease that ravaged communities throughout history. The hospital was established to provide care and isolation for those afflicted by the disease, helping to prevent its spread to the wider population. The building, with its imposing facade and expansive grounds, reflects the serious nature of the work carried out within its walls. Sadly, the hospital was eventually demolished around 1850 to make way for the construction of St Pancras railway station. At the time, the railway was seen as a symbol of progress and modernization, but the loss of the Smallpox Hospital marked the end of an era in the battle against smallpox. The hospital was eventually replaced by the Highgate Smallpox and Vaccination Hospital, which continued the vital work of caring for those affected by the disease. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the important role hospitals played in public health and the ongoing fight against infectious diseases. This photograph, taken in 1875, is a rare surviving record of the Smallpox Hospital in Kings Cross before its demolition. It is part of the Mary Evans/Peter & Dawn Cope Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online.
