History
The Ealing Provident Dispensary was established in 1869 at Minton Lodge on Mattock Lane, Ealing W13. In 1817 it was renamed Ealing Cottage Hospital and Provident Dispensary. In 1911 after the death of King Edward VII it was again renamed as the King Edward Memorial Hospital and Provident Dispensary. In 1933 it dropped the words Provident Dispensary to become the King Edward Memorial Hospital. The hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948 and came under the administration of the North West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board and the South West Middlesex Hospital Management Committee. In 1974 with NHS reorganisation it became part of the North West Thames Regional Health Authority and Ealing District Health Authority. The hospital was closed in 1979.
