Buildings 40-43: Alison Nesta Nightingale

These buildings form the main part of the “Girls Village” (with Building 66) and were built from 1958 – 1962 as part of the hospital expansion programme. They form a coherent group with similar floor plans; Building 40, Alison, was selected as representative of the cluster for internal recording. The buildings all face south-east and are located on the far west flank of the site, just to the south-east of Building 39, the Nurses’ Accommodation. Building 41 is a non-domestic external plant structure associated with power generation and management.

Building 40, Alison, is indicative of the ground plan and layout of all three buildings. It is single-story, H-shaped in plan, with cavity walls skinned in orange brick laid in stretcher courses, with pitched felted roofs. Windows, shuttered at the time of building recording with light-permeable metal sheeting, have simple brick surrounds and either simple concrete lintels and sills, or concrete surrounds. The central wing projects from the south-east (front) elevation slightly, forming a flat-roofed felted porch above the main access door. A door in the south-west pavilion wing is recessed into the building façade and is sheltered by a concrete lintel supported on engaged brick columns.

The south-west pavilion wing contains the kitchen, toilet blocks and utility rooms and two large dayrooms at the east end. The central range contains two large rooms, designated ‘dayroom’ and ‘dormitory’ on the historic grounds plans. The central wing contains the ‘duty room’, which controls access as well as store and utility rooms, and bath- and lavatory blocks. The north-east pavilion wing contains two sets of bedrooms/dormitories either side of a central glass-fronted internal corridor.
