Wordsley Hospital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wordsley Hospital is a NHS-owned hospital located in Wordsley, Stourbridge, which is in the West Midlands of England.
It was built around the turn of the 20th century, but was substantially expanded between 1930 and 1990 and even includes a separate hospital - Ridge Hill Hospital - which specialises in learning support and social care, without providing casualty or out patient facilities.
The most recent addition to Wordsley Hospital was a maternity unit that opened in 1989, but it was made redundant in 2004 following the transfer of its facilities to Russells Hall Hospital.
Part of the site has already been sold off for redevelopment, but most of the buildings are still in use and the Chapel will be preserved due to its Grade II Listed Status. The former maternity unit is also expected to be retained, as it is less than 20 years old and in a good condition.
