Boilerhouse And Power Plant At Crossley East Hospital

The Boilerhouse and Power Plant at Crossley East Hospital is a single-storey building constructed between 1902 and 1904 as part of the original ancillary buildings for the hospital. It is built from common brick, featuring red brick and terracotta dressings, and has later 20th-century concrete tile roofs with coped gables and a single side wall stack. The windows are primarily original wooden glazing bar lights with hoppers, particularly those at the front which have segmental heads. The structure is arranged in a C-plan with five ranges.

In the center, there is a double range, with the rear section having a clerestorey roof. This central area features two windows flanked by doors with fanlights, along with additional single windows and another door to the right. To the left, there is a crosswise boilerhouse with a clerestorey roof. The projecting front gable includes a three-light opening with louvres, flanked by a single window on the left and a door with a fanlight on the right.

To the right, there are two crosswise ranges with facing gables; the rightmost range also has a clerestorey roof. The left gable features an original window and a later 20th-century vehicle entrance, which is now boarded up. The right gable has a 20th-century vehicle entrance with a roller shutter and a round window in the gable. The interior is not accessible due to asbestos contamination.
