Extension
As Mid‑Cheshire's memorial of the late Queen Victoria, the foundation‑stone was laid on Friday of an extension of the Victoria Infirmary at Northwich, built seventeen years ago. The work will involve an outlay of £5,000. It has been designed by Mr. G. E. Bolshaw, architect, Southport and Crewe, and will provide for twelve additional beds, together with nurses' duty room, operating and anaesthetic rooms, offices, sitting‑rooms, etc. The annexe will be coupled up with the existing institution. and the opportunity will be taken advantage of to establish the patients’ rooms (now upstairs) on the ground floor. Externally the new buildings will be half-timbered in style. [Building News 2 September 1904 page 324]
