Description
The north-east wing of St Hilda's Hospital is a Grade II listed building that dates back to around 1600. Originally a manor house, it was later repurposed as a poor house and eventually became a hospital. This structure is located on the site of a 13th-century monastic house. The building is constructed from coursed, hammer-dressed limestone and features a Welsh slate roof with stone gable coping and a reduced end stack on the right (north) side, along with a crow-stepped gable on the left (south) side. It stands two storeys tall and has four bays on the east side, which include chamfered openings with mid-20th century metal casement windows that are now boarded over, along with a continuous hoodmould. One of the chamfered window openings has been altered to serve as a doorway at the first-floor level on the right (north) end. There are later extensions to the north, south, and west, but these are not of interest. The building was disused at the time of the survey.
