Bromley Hospital was a health facility on Bromley, London. It was managed by Bromley Hospitals NHS Trust.
History
The hospital had its origins in a cottage hospital established in two small cottages in Cromwell Avenue in May 1869.[1][2] A new purpose-built hospital, still known as Bromley Cottage Hospital, was built on the site in 1875 and an extension was completed in 1886.[1]
The hospital was again completely rebuilt in the early 20th century and the new facility was opened by Constance, Dowager Countess of Derby in 1911.[1] It became the Bromley (Kent) and District Hospital in 1928 and the Bromley and District Hospital in 1936.[1] It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and became Bromley Hospital in 1990.[1] After services were transferred to the Princess Royal University Hospital, the Bromley Hospital closed in 2003.[1][3] The site has since been redeveloped by Barratt Developments for residential use.[4]
