It is listed primarily for its unusual late 19th century front elevation of cast iron arcades with decorated spandrels. It is situated in the Hat & Feathers Conservation Area and is adjacent to the St Luke’s Conservation Area on the north-east fringes of Clerkenwell. This was an area of manufacturing and engineering in the 19th century, and since the 1980s it has undergone a regeneration with many 19th century buildings being converted to office and studio uses for creative industries, bringing back some of the vibrancy the area had in the nineteenth century.

  • Providing a 21 Century Facility for Moorfields Eye Hospital
    Providing a 21st century facility for Moorfields Eye Hospital Involving patients and the public Tell us what you think Version: 1 Published: November 2013 1 Contents Section Page 1 Introduction 2 2 Our vision for the new facility 3 3 Background to the engagement exercise 3 4 Why we want to move 4 5 Why King’s Cross/Euston? 5 6 What we are engaging about 6 7 How you can have your say 7 8 What happens next 7 9 Further information 7 10 Tell us what you think 8 2 1. Introduction This document outlines a proposal by Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust to move our main central London hospital from City Road near the Old Street roundabout to more modern facilities in the King’s Cross/Euston area. We plan to do this in partnership with our research colleagues at the UCL Institute of Ophthalmology. We need a new facility for several reasons: • Our existing buildings in City Road are more than 100 years old and were built at a time when hospital care was provided very differently to how it is now – they are no longer suited to the provision of 21st-century clinical care, research or education • Our ageing infrastructure is growing increasingly difficult and costly to maintain • The configuration of our existing buildings offers little scope for true integration between the clinical, research and teaching elements of our work, which will be crucial if we are to achieve our vision for the future (see section 2 below) • Although intermediate refurbishments go some way to improving the environment for our patients and staff, they are no substitute for purpose-built accommodation An in-principle decision to focus all our efforts on moving, rather than trying to rebuild on our current campus, was taken by our board of directors in March 2013, following an extensive options appraisal.
