Description: | Undated,
A view of the Winter Gardens at Leeds General Infirmary taken in early 1900s.
The new infirmary was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott in consultation with the chief physician Dr Charles Chadwick, after they made visits to French hospitals.
The glass and iron roof seen here was built over the Central Hall by the Exhibition Committee. The winter gardens were also used for concerts, tennis and an art gallery. The roof was demolished in 1911. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Hospital Winter Gardens Great George Street | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
