History
There were originally two hospitals on the site: the Stockwell Smallpox Hospital, which opened in 1871, and the Stockwell Fever Hospital, which opened shortly thereafter; these two hospitals combined in 1884 to form the South Western Fever Hospital.[1] It joined the National Health Service in 1948 as the South Western Hospital and contained an out-patient facility, known as the "Landor Road Day Hospital" for psychiatric patients.[1] It closed in the early 1990s and, following demolition in 1996, was replaced by a new mental health facility known as Lambeth Hospital.[1] The new mental health facility was named after a previous Lambeth Hospital, which had opened on the site of Lambeth Workhouse in Renfrew Road, in 1922.[2]
In 2014, the Triage ward of the new hospital was featured in an episode of the Channel 4 documentary series Bedlam.[3]
The NHS South East London Clinical Commissioning Group announced in May 2020 that Lambeth hospital would close with the services moved to a new building on the Maudsley Hospital site.[4] South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust announced a consultation in July 2020 on proposals to sell land so that 570 houses could be built on the site.[5]
