St. Nicholas Hospital’s history began in April 1866 when the ‘Farm Ward’ of a new asylum was opened to 30 patients on a 50 acre former site at Coxlodge. In 1884 the east and west pavilions were added, providing accommodation for 80 patients. The City Council enlarged the hospital again in 1894 with a separate building to the east of the main block, a recreation hall, chapel, new entrance lodge and 10 cottages for married attendants. The new institution for 350 patients, designed by J.W. Dyson, opened in July 1900. Two villa blocks for 80 patients and a nurse’s home were built in 1913. In February 1915 the hospital became Northumberland No. 1 War Hospital for wounded soldiers. Lieutenant Colonel Prescott was appointed administrator and the acting Medical Officer of the Asylum, Dr McPhail was appointed Registrar. It was not brought back into civilian use until 1921. In 1923 the verandah for ward 9 was constructed, and a cinema room in 1925. On being taken over by the NHS in 1948, the hospital became St. Nicholas’ Hospital. An Interim Treatment Centre opened in December 1950, and in 1954 an admissions unit (Collingwood Clinic) with 118 beds. The hospital building which is to be demolished is part of J.W. Dyson’s institution, and is labelled ‘sick and infirm ward’ on his proposed plan of 1891. It is constructed of sandstone blocks and has a tiled roof. Although modernised inside, it retains original sash windows and parquet flooring, some original sinks and part of the heating system. An astonishing feature of the grade 2 listed recreation hall is a proscenium arch with Doulton tiles by W.J. Neatby in an art nouveau style. It features female figures in flowing robes, brightly coloured trees and flowers.
