History

The hospital was established as the Ripon Dispensary in 1850.[1][2] It was subsequently converted into a hospital; a nurses' home, built to commemorate the golden wedding anniversary of the Marquess and Marchioness of Ripon, was completed in 1901.[3] A new wing was opened by Princess Mary in 1926[4] and the hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948.[5]

A new Community Diagnostic Centre opened in May 2024.[6][7][8]
