North Middlesex Hospital: Steeped in history
Opened in 1955, the North Middlesex Hospital is based in Edmonton, just off the North Circular Road.
What was initially a workhouse in 1840, the first version of a hospital on this site launched in 1910 to service hundreds of workers. Amid rising poverty, illness levels were also on the up, and in 1907 a committee was formed to develop a hospital on site, separated by just an iron fence. Of the original structure, only the shared iron gate still stands today.
