Hmm. Shi??? The address below is St Georges Road, I'll google and see if I can find anything! Just looked and the other side of it is also St George's Road. Can't find anything obvious yet. |

This is definitely not the words it says on the census but thought it was interesting. Perhaps it was renamed at somepoint? It does say SQUARE and not ROAD though. Yarmouth The Royal or Yarmouth Hospital was instituted on 28 June 1838, the day of her Majesty's Coronation, & occupies a handsome white brick building in St George's Sq, finished in March 1840, at the cost of more than £1000. It has accommodation for 20 in patients. The Dispensary, which was established in 1822, has merged into this institution for affording medical & surgical aid to the sick & lame poor of Yarmouth & the Hundreds of East & West Flegg, in Norfolk; & Mutford & Lothingland, in Suffolk, as in & out patients. Of the latter, it relieves more than 700 yearly. The Rev H Mackenzie is President, & F R Reynolds esq, Vice President. Two physicians & four surgeons lend their aid gratuitously, & Mr Thomas S Rising is the House Surgeon & Apothecary. Source: White Directory 1845 - p 263 |
