Health; Hospital The Royal Northern Hospital was a general hospital on Holloway Road, London N7, near Tollington Way. It had inpatient, outpatient, accident and emergency facilities and was also a centre for postgraduate education. Originally located at King's Cross, it began as an independent and voluntary hospital. The hospital moved to Holloway Road in 1888 and received a Royal Charter in 1921. Purpose-built blocks of flats were built for nurses on Tollington Way in the mid-1960s; they were demolished during the 1980s. The hospital was closed due to the reorganisation of the NHS facilities in North London. The Royal Northern Hospital facilities were incorporated into the Royal Free Hospital, University College Hospital and the Whittington Hospital. The hospital was demolished in the mid-1990s to make way to a block of flats; the demolition was delayed when a body was found.
