SPAB Visit to Old Bristol Royal Infirmary

3rd Aug, 2024
Bristol

Join SPAB on an exclusive visit to the Bristol Old Royal Infirmary. The tour will be led by SPAB Member Bryony Levermore, Technical Director at UC Build, who is leading the project to convert this building into student accommodation. This large and impressive Georgian building dates from 1784-1810, and despite many later amendments and interventions it still retains clear indications of its origins as one of the first purpose-built hospitals outside London. The conversion project is the culmination of a 'long and complicated' planning history for the site since its closure in 2016. The day begins with tea, coffee and a briefing in the site office, then up the Georgian stairs to view the corridors. During lunch enjoy a presentation and discussion, before finishing the tour with a walk around the perimeter and up the scaffold.
