St George's Hospital, Mental health hospital in Stafford, England.
St George's Hospital provides mental health services across multiple buildings, with the main structure recognized for its corridor-style architecture from the early 1800s.
The facility opened as Stafford General Asylum in 1818, designed by architect Joseph Potter, and underwent major expansions in 1879 and 1884 with new gender-specific blocks.
The transition from a large asylum to modern mental health units reflects the evolution of psychiatric care methods and societal approaches to mental health treatment.
The hospital operates under the South Staffordshire and Shropshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, offering specialized services for adults, veterans, and substance misuse treatment.
The original main building has been converted into residential apartments called St George's Mansions, while mental health services continue in adjacent modern facilities.
