The North Riding Infirmary was a hospital in Newport Road in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England.

History

The foundation stone for the hospital was laid by Thomas Dundas, 2nd Earl of Zetland in Newport Road on 7 August 1860.[1] It was designed in the Italianate style, built in brick with stone dressings and was officially opened by the industrialist, Henry Bolckow, in June 1864.[2] It was extended at the north and south ends at the expense of the industrialist, Sir Bernhard Samuelson, in 1906.[3] It joined the National Health Service in 1948.[4]

The local ear, nose and throat support group raised funds totalling £1,268 for an infusion pump in 1990.[5] The North Riding Infirmary, the Middlesbrough General Hospital, and the neuro-rehabilitation unit at West Lane Hospital were all replaced by the James Cook University Hospital in 2001.[6] The old hospital was demolished in 2006,[7] and a supermarket was subsequently built on the site.[8]
