Hospital Records

The Hospital Records database gives details about hospital records in the United Kingdom. Some records held by hospitals have also been included.

The information in this database has been obtained mainly from questionnaires completed by local authority record offices, supplemented by further research. A small number of hospitals which maintain their own archives have been included, but coverage of records still held by hospitals is limited.

The information is constantly being updated, but this can be difficult in cases when hospitals close and information on the closure and the fate of records is not supplied
