(relocated) Middlesex Hospital - Broderip Ward - gone

Erection date: 9/4/1987

Site: Middlesex Hospital - Broderip Ward - gone (1 memorial)

W1, Mortimer Street

The Middlesex Hospital closed and was demolished in 2008. We cannot trace what has happened to any of its memorabilia, but believe that the Wellcome Institute may have retrieved some of them, so we have marked the plaque as relocated rather than lost.
