NT 2846 7544 A programme of historic building recording was undertaken during December 2006 and January 2007 at the Eastern General Hospital prior to the partial demolition of the site for redevelopment. The Eastern General Hospital is on the coast at Seafield, and consists of a poorhouse built in 1906-7, later converted to a hospital. The hospital is first reported in 1918 and several later alterations and additions have transformed the

appearance, function and size of the original structures. However, the main elements of the original building and the layout remained virtually intact. The hospital closed in 2004.
