History

edit

The original facility on the site, which was designed by George Thomas Hine,[1] opened as the Cuckfield Isolation Hospital in May 1902.[2] It joined the National Health Service as the Mid-Sussex Isolation Hospital in 1948 and became Goddards Green Hospital in 1960.[3] After the Goddards Green Hospital closed in the 1990s, the site was acquired by the Priory Group, which established a mental health unit there, initially known as The Dene,[4] and, from 2018, branded as the "Priory Hospital Burgess Hill".[5]
