Bristol General Hospital, Grade II listed former hospital in Harbourside, Bristol, England
The Bristol General Hospital stands as a substantial Victorian structure on Guinea Street, featuring distinctive architectural elements and an ogee dome on the roof.
Founded in 1832 with 20 beds and support from Quakers, the hospital expanded through various construction phases until its closure in 2012.
The building served as a filming location for the BBC Three drama series Being Human, connecting medical heritage with contemporary entertainment.
The former medical facility has been transformed into residential apartments while maintaining its Grade II listed status and historical features.
During World War II, the hospital sustained substantial damage, including the complete destruction of its characteristic ogee dome, which was later restored.
