South East Ward Range At St Georges Hospital

The south-east ward range at St George's Hospital, formerly known as the Borough Fever Hospital, was built between 1876 and 1882 and features mid-20th century alterations. Designed by SL Swann, the building is constructed of red brick with blue brick, moulded brick, and ashlar dressings, showcasing a Gothic Revival style.

On the exterior, there is a plinth, string courses, sill and impost bands, and a moulded brick cornice. The building is two storeys high and has a total of 14 windows. At the time of the survey, many ground floor windows were boarded up. The structure consists of two Y-plan blocks that are now connected at their inner ends by a mid-20th century brick link building, which has two casements above and a full-width glazed canopy below that covers various windows and doors.

Each block features three stone mullioned cross casements flanked by single light transomed windows, all with segmental heads. The ground floor has similar fenestration with segmental pointed polychrome heads and panel tracery. At the inner ends, there is a canted two-storey staircase tower with a balustrade and a large stack, which includes three shouldered segmental pointed windows with polychrome heads and blocked round windows above. The ground floor windows are also blocked.

At the centre of the inner ends, there is a large dormer with a slated roof, coped gable, and a pointed arched window. The outer ends feature splayed projecting bays with a segment-headed transomed window above and a similar window with a segmental pointed head and panel tracery below. In each return angle, there are two similar windows on each floor. Between the splayed bays, a segment-headed three-light mullion window with transom is present, along with a pointed arched window below. The interior was not inspected, and the building was vacant at the time of the survey.
