Medway Maritime Hospital

Medway Maritime Hospital was originally a Royal Naval Hospital. King Edward VII opened it in 1905. The hospital water tower, which is grade II listed - LinkExternal link , is a local landmark. Until 1950, Royal Marines police guarded the entrance to the hospital.
In 1961 the NHS acquired the hospital from the Navy. Modernisation was carried out and the hospital reopened again as Medway Hospital in 1965. In 1999 it was renamed Medway Maritime Hospital. It is part of the Medway Maritime Trust.
