Saint Stephen's Hospital — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Detached single-storey former gate lodge, built 1954, now in use as ambulance station. Flat roof with oversailing timber eaves. Roughcast rendered walls with smooth rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with steel fixed and casement windows, arranged in three sets of three across full width of front (south) elevation, and to south ends of east and west elevations. Square-headed half-glazed steel door to west elevation. Stone clad boundary walls with rendered copings and metal railings and gates to site entrance.

One of large coherently planned group of hospital structures, built as Tuberculosis Sanatorium under Doctor Noel Browne as Minister for Health. Frankly modern in style, the flat roof, strip windows and lack of adornment are typical of mid-twentieth-century institutional architecture. A remarkably complete and well preserved example.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
