What is now an idyllic country park was once the scene of a bustling military hospital. As the British Army’s first purpose-built hospital, Royal Victoria was a unique and ambitious project which would help change the face of the medical world.


Written on the stones is a poem by Frank Thompson: "Write on the stones no words of sadness, only the gladness due that we who ask the most of living, know how to give it too".
