Description

The former parish hospital at Stoke-on-Trent Union Workhouse, now part of City General Hospital, was built in 1842. It is constructed of brick and features a plain tiled roof. The building is two storeys high and has seven bays arranged in a 1-5-1 pattern, with the outer bays advanced and adorned with windows that have stone architraves. The entrance is centrally located in the main range, featuring a squared doorway framed by a stone architrave with stressed quoins, and a lugged architrave above the window. An inscription in the entablature of the entrance architrave reads: "Stoke on Trent Parish Hospital erected AD 1842". The flanking windows are 12-pane sashes with flat arched stuccoed heads, and the ground floor windows have been renewed in their original openings. The building also has axial stacks.
