History
The facility was established by converting an early 19th century cottage into a facility known as St Mary's Cottage Hospital in 1869.[2] It became Tenbury and District Cottage Hospital in 1935 and, after joining the National Health Service in 1948 it subsequently became known as Tenbury and District Hospital and then Tenbury Community Hospital.[2] The operating theatre closed in 2012 and the minor injuries unit became only accessible during daytime hours.[3]
