Title
Aberdeen Maternity Hospital
Description
A drawing of the Aberdeen Maternity Hospital on Castle Terrace. The image features on the front cover of the hospital's annual reports prior to its move to new premises at Foresterhill in 1937. Aberdeen Local Studies hold annual reports for the hospital from 1912 to 1947. In 1912 the hospital acquired its own Board of Management. Instituted in 1893, the Maternity Hospital moved to Castle Terrace in 1900 after its buildings in Barnet's Close, Guestrow, part of the General Dispensary, Vaccine and Lying-in Institution, became inadequate. The new location in Castle Terrace was an old bank building adjoining the Children's Hospital. Most of the services relocated to Foresterhill in 1937 as part of the Joint Hospital Scheme, but the antenatal clinic remained at Castle Terrace until a new antenatal annexe was built at the new site in 1941. The illustration is signed A.J.M.
