The Royal Lancaster Infirmary (RLI) is a hospital in the city of Lancaster, England.[2][3]
The Infirmary was opened in 1896 but has its origins in a dispensary which opened in the city in 1781 on Castle Hill and a fever hospital established in 1815. These two institutions combined in premises in Thurnham Street 1833-1896.[4]
The original building, by architects Paley and Austin, is grade II listed.[5] It lies to the south of the city centre, between the A6 road and the Lancaster Canal.
It is one of the hospitals of the University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust, an NHS foundation trust.[1] The trust also operates Furness General Hospital at Barrow-in-Furness; Westmorland General Hospital in Kendal; Queen Victoria Hospital (outpatients) in Morecambe; and Ulverston Community Health Centre (outpatients).[6]
