Description

St Clements Hospital, built in 1849, was formerly known as the City of London Infirmary. It is designed in an Italianate style, constructed from stock brick with stuccoed dressings, and features pantiled roofs with a shallow pitch. The building includes arched openings and a central tower, arranged around a formal plan with an internal courtyard. It has been partly damaged by fire and is located at the end of Coburn Road.
