The original Cumberland Infirmary

  • Description

    "Built between 1830-32, financed by subscriptions from wealthy benefactors, enabling charity patients to receive treatment. Extensions and other buildings were added to the hospital over the years - for historical information, see Carlisle Encyclopedia http://www.carlisleshistory.co.uk/page25.htm . A new Cumberland Infirmary, built nearby on the same site, opened in 2000 - see [[74610]] . This old building is still in hospital use." Photo by Rose and Trev Clough, 2011.
