History

St. Benedict's Hospital has always had a strong relationship with the military and can trace thet relationship all the way back to as far as 1297, when a temporary field hospital was erected for soldiers returning from the crusades to recover in.

However the first mention of a permanent structure on this site was referenced by a certain Dr. J Frobisher of the Royal College of Surgeons in one of his books on Georgian Medicine.

"While many towns and villages during the Georgian area lacked suitable public healthcare, the Peppardville Hospital in Malton found itself at the centre of national attention on more then one occasion. It is said George III requested his favourite surgeon, who worked here, whenever he felt a little 'peaky.'"

The hospital was rebuilt in 1909 with the addition of four more wards and an extra operating theatre as well a complete change in decor. During the construction work all patients and staff were transferred to the nearby St. Helena's Church.

In World War I and later World War II the hospital was leased to the war office along with all staff.

From 1914 to the beginning of 1915 the hospital was a recovery hospital and early 1915 onwards dealth with gas cases.

1940 to '45 the hospital was a psychiatric-cum-training hospital. Up to three medical units trained here at any one time.
