EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view print captures the historical significance of Nell Lane Hospital in Manchester, originally opened in 1855 as the Chorlton Union workhouse. Designed by Thomas Worthington, this architectural marvel was the first pavilion plan infirmary built in England. The main workhouse building, shaped like a cross and located left of center, served as a symbol of hope for those struggling with poverty and homelessness.
The row of long blocks above center housed a new infirmary that opened in 1866, providing much-needed medical care to the less fortunate. Throughout the years, Nell Lane Hospital became synonymous with health care and treatment for those in need.
As time passed, the site evolved into Withington Hospital, continuing its legacy of serving the community with compassion and dedication. The buildings on this site have witnessed countless stories of resilience and healing over the decades.
This print is not just a visual representation of architecture; it is a testament to the history and progress made in providing medical assistance to those who require it most. Let us remember the importance of institutions like Nell Lane Hospital in shaping our understanding of health care and social welfare throughout history.
