Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox hospital Belvoir Park Hospital (Шаблон:Lang-ga) was a cancer treatment specialist hospital situated in Newtownbreda, South Belfast, Northern Ireland. Belvoir Park held Northern Ireland's only radiotherapy unit, until the opening of a new cancer treatment centre in Belfast City Hospital.
History
The hospital, which was designed by Young and McKenzie, opened as the Purdysburn Fever Hospital in 1906.[1] The facility became known as Montgomery House in 1953 and it then became Belvoir Park Hospital in the 1960s.[2]
The hospital became the main regional centre for oncology, offering radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatments[3] and in 1983, the hospital was the first in the province to take delivery of a CT scanner. Friends of Montgomery House, a charity founded by Dr Gerard Lynch to help cancer sufferers and their families, was established in 1984[4] and the hospital's Gerard Lynch Centre held many cancer support groups, in order to aid both sufferers and their families.[5]
After services had been transferred to Belfast City Hospital, the hospital closed in March 2006.[2] In June 2014 the site was sold to a private developer known as the Neptune Group.[2] Neptune Group have since restored some of the original buildings to function as modern townhouses, and the first showhomes were opened in June 2017.[6]
