Kelso Hospital, also known as Inch Hospital, is a health facility at Inch Road in Kelso, Scotland. It is managed by NHS Borders.
The hospital has its origins in the Kelso Union Workhouse which was designed by John Smith (1783-1864) and opened in 1854.[1][2] It was converted for hospital use, based on a design by Scottish architect James Alison (1862-1932), in 1911.[3] It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and subsequently became known as "Inch Hospital".[4][a]
