Historia
St James' Infirmary, Sarsfeld Road, was opened by the Wandsworth Board of Guardians in 1910. It was linked to the nearby St James' Workhouse. In 1922 it was renamed St James' Hospital. There was an additional entrance in to the hospital in Ouseley Road. In 1930 the London County Council took over the management of the hospital. In 1948 with the introduction of the National Health Service the hospital passed in to the hands of the Wandsworth Hospital Group. It continued to expand steadily during this period, with the construction of a new Outpatients Department in 1953 followed by a new Central Block. The hospital closed in 1988 after merging with St George's Hospital, Tooting. The site was sold and the buildings demolished.
