EDITORS COMMENTS
St Bartholomew's Hospital, Farringdon, City of London - The Dispensary (circa 1907) This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of St Bartholomew's Hospital Dispensary in the heart of London's Farringdon district during the early 20th century. Established in 1123, St Bartholomew's Hospital is one of England's oldest and most renowned medical institutions. The Dispensary, located on West Smithfield, was a vital part of the hospital's outpatient services, providing essential care and treatment to the city's residents. In this image, patients can be seen waiting in line, some seated on benches while others stand, as they await their turn to be seen by a medical professional. The pharmacy counter, filled with an array of glass bottles and jars, is manned by a pharmacist, who meticulously fills prescriptions. The dispensary's walls are adorned with various signs and signage, indicating the different departments and services within the hospital. The scene exudes an air of dedication and compassion, as the medical staff work tirelessly to provide care and relief to those in need. The patients, many of whom appear somber and weary, are testament to the importance of the Dispensary in the community. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the vital role that hospitals and healthcare professionals have played in the lives of the people of London for over 900 years. St Bartholomew's Hospital, with its rich history and commitment to healthcare, continues to be a beacon of hope and healing in the City of London, serving the community with the same compassion and dedication that has defined it for generations.
