It is situated in Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire . The construction was based on the design of a stately home to help dissociate the assumption at the time that hospitals were a place of death. When it first opened treatment was received by payment only admissions were only taken at 11 o clock every morning except Sundays and if you hadn t paid your one guinea a year subscription to the hospital a kind of insurance to ensure treatment when it was needed you were charged Sixpence British coin sixpence on admission and were then required to pay a further guinea for further treatment. If you were too poor to pay these fees, you went to the workhouse located on Bierton Hill now the Tindal Centre . The current building dating from 1862 replaced an earlier building on the site. The design was influenced by Florence Nightingale who had recently returned from the Crimea and was the first pavilion style civilian hospital to be completed in the UK. Letters and sketches by her about the design are in the Buckinghamshire County Council Bucks County Council Reference Library. Florence Nightingale also did a lot of fundraising for the hospital, keeping the admission fees low, ensuring the hospital was able to treat more people.
