Description

Trent Hospital (South Block) is a workhouse that has been converted into a hospital, built between 1838 and 1839 by the architectural firm Boulton and Palmer of Stafford. The building is constructed of brick with plaster dressings and features a hipped slate roof with brick axial stacks, reflecting the Georgian style. It is a single-storey structure with a seven-window range, where the end windows project slightly forward.

The exterior includes a plinth, a lintel band, and wide modillioned eaves. The round-headed windows are adorned with archivolts, and the end tripartite round-headed windows are likely 12-pane sashes with margin lights, although they are currently boarded. The central and end windows feature fielded-panel aprons.

On the right side, there is a truncated lateral stack and a round-headed entrance with an archivolt and a fanlight that has decorative glazing bars above a six-panel door. The rear of the building has a right end wing with a tripartite window and a lateral stack. There is a central round-headed entrance similar to the one on the right return, but it has a brick arch and key. Flanking windows have triangular-headed lintels and are also 12-pane sashes with margin lights.
