Farnham Road Hospital is a mental health hospital in Guildford, Surrey. It is managed by Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. The main building is a Grade II listed building. [1]
The foundation stone for the hospital was laid by Charles Richard Sumner, Bishop of Winchester, at a site donated by the Earl of Onslow in Farnham Road in Guildford in 1863. [2] The 60-bed hospital was designed by Edward Ward Lower drawing on the ideas of Florence Nightingale and was opened as the Royal Surrey County Hospital in April 1866. [3] The Royal Surrey County Hospital moved to its current site in Egerton Road in Guildford in 1979. [3]
The Farnham Road site was redeveloped between December 2013 and December 2015 to create a modern purpose-built mental health facility. [4]
