The Worksop Poor Law Union constructed a workhouse for 400 inmates on East Gate in the 1830s. The buildings were demolished in the 1960s. An associated infirmary was built at Kilton Hill in 1901-04 which became Kilton Hill Hospital from 1948 until the 1980s when Bassetlaw District Hospital was built on the site.<br> | |||
