BARNARD CASTLE

Richardson Hospital (Robert Richardson Convalescent Home), John Street NZ 054 168 BF102197. A late-19th century villa built by its owner for use as a convalescent home. The building was converted and extended in the late 1930s or early 1940s. It was taken over as an EMS hospital dring WWII. A geriatric unit was added in 1968

Teesdale Union Workhouse, Galgate NZ 054 169 BF102200. Teesdale Union Workhouse was a stone building erected in 1838 at a cost of £2,500. It could accommodate 138 inmates. An infirmary and infectious ward were built near the workhouse at a cost of over £3,000 between 1857 and 1892. The main workhouse buildings had been demolished by 2005, but two other buildings (including the infirmary) in the north east corner of the site were still extant.

The infirmary consisted of a two-storey building of stone with a Welsh slate roof, originally with an eight-bay long frontage, which had been extended by two bays by 1892. The two central bays of the original building project forward slightly and are surmounted by a gable; the three-bay wings to either side have a door next to the centre bay. The two-bay extensions comprise of a room and an end sanitary tower. A second two storey building, in the same materials with an eight-bay long front and two doors, may be the infectious ward or domestic workhouse accommodation. Its doors lead into stair halls with staircases with stone steps, iron balusters and iron handrails.

By 1939, it had become a Public Assistance Institution. It was administered as a single unit during World War II by the Emergency Medical Scheme along with the neighbouring Robert Richardson Convalescent Home. In 2005, the two remaining buildings were known as Claire House and may have been converted into residential accommodation.
