Dewsbury and District Hospital (Staincliffe General Hospital, Dewsbury Union Workhouse) SE 233 228 BF100852  The workhouse for Dewsbury Union was built c.1854 to designs by  Henry Francis Lockwood and William Mawson and comprised a three-storey main block with a range of entrance blocks to the east. There was a school block to the north and an infirmary. In 1893, a row of cottage homes were built to the south of the workhouse. Each home accommodated 12 children and a foster mother (all now demolished).

Between 1890 and 1895 a new infirmary was built to the south of the workhouse complex – this substantially survives. It was extended in 1907 and a nurse’s home  built in 1909. The architect was A.W. Hanstock. Between the wars it became the Staincliffe Institution, becoming Staincliffe General Hospital under the NHS in 1948. One of the first additions to the site were new ward units for the elderly. Opened in 1960 by the Princess Royal, this double-courtyard plan, flat-roofed, single storey unit was designed by Yorke, Rosenberg & Mardall, with in put on the design from the secretary to the Regional Hospitals Board, W. A. Shee. The new unit had the distinction of being the first entirely new general hospital wards to be opened in the West Riding since the establishment of the NHS, and the first of their kind to be provided for geriatric cases. The unit has since been either rebuilt entirely on the same footprint, or so altered as to be unrecognisable.

Further additions to the west were built in the 1960s/70s, but the major change came in the 1980s when the site was extended considerably, with two new large complexes to create a new district general hospital for the area, replacing the inter-war Dewsbury Hospital.
