Other information
Barnet Isolation Hospital was built between 1906 and 1907 to serve Barnet Urban District, East Barnet Valley Urban District and the Rural District of Barnet. It had sixteen beds: two wards with four beds and an observation block with eight beds. It was situated in Mays Road. Under the Barnet Isolation Hospital Order, 1902, the Barnet Hospital Committee was created, consisting of four representatives of Barnet Urban District Council, six representatives of East Barnet Valley Urban District Council and two representatives of Barnet Rural District Council. The Order stated that building was to commence on 30 June 1906 and was to be completed by 30 June 1907. In 1917 the hospital changed its name to Barnet Rural District and Urban District and East Barnet Valley Urban District Isolation Hospital. The hospital closed in 1948 on the formation of the National Health Service.
