Légende

Westminster Memorial Cottage Hospital, Shaftesbury, 1871. 'The building shown in our Illustration is the Cottage Hospital erected at Shaftesbury, by public subscription, as a memorial of the late Marquis of Westminster. The foundation-stone was laid, on May 25, by Lady Theodora Grosvenor, his daughter, supported by the Mayor of Shaftesbury, Mr. W. H. Fricker, and the clergy and gentry of the neighbourhood. The architect of the building is Mr. J. B. Corby, of Stamford, Lincolnshire. The site is a piece of ground, given by the Dowager Marchioness of Westminster, near the church and schools founded by that lady. There will be accommodation for eight patients, with nurses, and, if needful, the building can be enlarged'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
