St Marys Hospital

St Mary's Hospital is a hospital built in 1909 by John Ely. It features red brick with matching terracotta dressings and slate roofs. The building has an extended E-plan, consisting of a main range that runs parallel to the street, with three slightly radiating ward blocks at the rear. It is designed in a diluted Edwardian Baroque style and stands three storeys tall with a basement and attics.

The façade has seven bays, arranged as 3:2:3:3:3:2:2 windows on the first floor, and is symmetrical. The central bay is wider, with the flanking bays projecting slightly and featuring gables, while the end bays are canted. A first-floor band, modillioned cornice, and balustraded parapet adorn the top. The central entrance is accessed by steps and features an architrave with coupled fluted Tuscan columns on pedestals, a triglyph frieze, and a broken segmental pediment. The round-headed doorway has raised run-out voussoirs and a keystone, with coupled windows in a pedimented architrave above.

The gabled bays have 4-light windows on the second floor, segmental pediments over the cornice, and attic gables with 2-light windows and apex finials. The canted end bays are topped with octagonal turrets that have domed lead roofs. All windows feature keystones; those on the first floor have shouldered architraves and cornices, while the second-floor windows are paired with similar architraves. The first and second-floor windows are sashed with glazing bars, but the ground floor windows have altered glazing. The returned ends and rear wings are designed in a similar style. The interior has not been inspected. The hospital forms a group with the Royal Infirmary to the north.
