Dewsbury and District Hospital

Dewsbury and District Hospital is an acute District General Hospital in Staincliffe, West Yorkshire operated by the Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust.

[1] The infirmary moved to a more permanent home on the Halifax Road in 1883: the distinctive new building was designed in the gothic revival style by Kirk & Sons of Dewsbury.

[1] After the infirmary had left the site, this building was taken over by the West Riding County Council and was renamed the "Municipal Buildings" and more recently has simply become known as "Boothroyds".

[1] After the infirmary had left the Moorlands Road site, the hospital buildings there were demolished to make way for housing.

[3] It was announced in August 2017 that the accident and emergency department at the hospital would be downgraded in status to that of an urgent care centre with patients with life-threatening injuries being sent for treatment at Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield instead.
