The Dorchester Hospital (also originally known as Dorset County Hospital) in Dorchester, Dorset, England served the local area for many years before being finally closed in 1998 when the newer Dorset County Hospital (then known as West Dorset County Hospital), a General District Hospital, replaced it. Both hospitals fell under (for the latter part of Dorchester Hospitals years) the West Dorset General Hospitals NHS Trust. The newer hospital, was renamed to Dorset County Hospital when the former hospital closed.
[edit] Further development
The hospital was torn down after it was closed to make way for new housing developments, but some of the old structures still remain.
