History

The hospital, which was designed as an infirmary for the Ruthin Union Workhouse, actually first saw use as convalescent home during the First World War.[1] It became an acute general hospital in the 1930s, a hospital managed by GPs in the 1950s and a community hospital in the 1980s.[1] In July 2012 the health board announced that the minor injuries unit would close and X-ray services would no longer be provided.[2]
