St Luke's Hospital was a psychiatric hospital in Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, England. It was managed by Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys Foundation NHS Trust.

History[]

The facility, which initially absorbed patients from the aging North Riding Asylum in York, was designed by Charles Henry Howell using a compact arrow layout.[1] It opened as the Middlesbrough Borough Asylum in June 1898.[2] It joined the National Health Service as St Luke's Hospital in 1948.[1]

In 1980, the South Cleveland Hospital was built on parkland adjacent to St Luke's Hospital.[3]

In November 1980 the regional medium-secure psychiatric unit was established in a modern building to the rear of the hospital called the Hutton Centre.[4][5]

St Luke's was demolished in 2010[2] to make way for the new Roseberry Park Hospital.[6]
