More about this scene

The Sanctuary had a more enclosed feel than today owing to the hospital opposite the abbey's west door. The hospital moved in 1939 to nearby St John's Gardens, and this building, dating from 1834, was demolished in 1951. Afterwards the site remained vacant for thirty years until work started on the Queen Elizabeth Conference Centre, which has a wide, open frontage.

Hello I was born in Westminster Hospital and christened in Westminster Cathedral, at the end of the war, do you have a selection of any old pictures of them both, as you will have guessed I am getting close to 70, and although I have been to the Cathedral, I have never seen the Hospital when I was born, as I believe the site has now been re developed, I now have retired and live in France Best Regards Jon Oneill
