Old Hospital Goes

An old building up at Cook Hospital, after a long and honourable career, is being demolished. It is the original Cook Hospital which was built on a site in Aberdeen Road before being actually moved to its hill site in 1911.

As other buildings were erected to form the hospital complex this building gradually receded in importance until over the past few years it has been used only as a store house.
