Bronllys Hospital (Welsh: Ysbyty Bronllys) is a health facility in Bronllys, Wales. It is managed by Powys Teaching Health Board.[1] The Basil Webb Hall[2] and the Chapel are Grade II listed buildings.[3] The hospital grounds are listed as Grade II on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.[4]
History
[edit]The hospital was established as a tuberculosis facility known as the South Wales Sanitorium. It was designed by Edwin Thomas Hall and Stanley Hall in the arts and crafts style and was opened by King George V and Queen Mary in 1920.[5] The chapel, which was a gift from Sir David Llewellyn and Lord Buckland, opened at the same time.[3] The hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948.[5] One of the buildings, Glasbury House, is now the headquarters of Powys Teaching Health Board[6] and it was announced in February 2015 that Llewellyn Ward would remain open with GP support.[7]

The hospital offers inpatient medical, rehabilitative, and palliative medical care, as well as an inpatient psychiatric ward for voluntary patients and those sectioned under the Mental Health Act 1983.[1]
