A DOCTOR is hoping people will remember a Victorian hospital long after it is closed.
Medical and nursing services at the North Riding Infirmary, Middlesbrough, which was built in 1864, are to be switched to the town's James Cook University Hospital in a few weeks' time.
Consultant Bartley McNeela commissioned artist Elizabeth Smith to paint the hospital, which has been put up for sale.
Proceeds from the sale of large and small prints will be spent on stocking a medical library.
