Miners' Convalescent Home, Grade II listed building on Queens Promenade, Blackpool, England.
The three-story red brick structure features terracotta decorations, slate hipped roofs, and a distinctive tower with an ogee cap at the rear section.
The Prince of Wales inaugurated this convalescent facility in June 1927, built by architects Bradshaw, Gass and Hope for Lancashire and Cheshire miners.
The establishment represented the mining communities' dedication to supporting workers' health through dedicated medical facilities near the therapeutic coastal environment.
The former medical facility has been transformed into residential apartments while maintaining its protected status under English heritage preservation regulations.
The building combines Baroque Revival architectural elements with purpose-built medical recovery spaces, reflecting early 20th-century healthcare design principles.
