Badsley Moor Lane Hospital

1887-1948

A picture of Badsley Moor Lane hospital

This website sets out to give the history for Badsley Moor Lane Hospital before the National Health Service was established in 1948. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that helped me gather this information and a special thanks To all the staff at Rotherham Archives, John Foster and all the staff at Garnett and Dickinson (Rotherham Advertiser), All the staff at the Public Records Office,

Researching the history of Rotherham Hospitals and past medical care is a hobby in which I have been involved with for the last few years. I am not medically trained and my information has been gathered from a number of sources. If you have any information that may differ from the information I have given, I would be pleased to hear from you.
