Royal Naval Hospital, Portland 1.36

The Portland Royal Naval Hospital was a naval hospital on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, England. The hospital site was located close to Portland Harbour within the neighbouring village of Castletown. Discounting various other earlier buildings used as a temporary hospital, the main general naval hospital was active from the beginning of the 20th century, and comprised an administration block, surgical block, medical block, officers block and service buildings. It closed in 1957, when it was handed over to the National Health Service, and the NHS Portland Community Hospital is still active today.
