Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Orphan Шаблон:Improve categories Hereford Dispensary was founded in 1835 in Hereford, England.[1] In 1837, it was moved to a house on Bye Street (now Commercial Street) in Hereford.[2] It was part of the Dispensary Movement. It was a public dispensary, which gave advice and medicine free-of-charge, or for a small charge. In its first year, it saw 178 patients.[3] By 1839 it had seen 600 patients.[4]

From around 1841, the appointed physician was Henry Graves Bull. He held this post for 40 years.[5]

In 1881, the Dispensary moved to a new location on Union Street.[3] It was built in Classical Italian style.[6]

By 1900, it was seeing over 3,500 patients per year - in addition to those recommended by subscribers - and was reported as being in urgent need of more subscribers.[7] This number declined to just over 3,000 a year by 1910, though the request for more subscribers continued.[8]

By 1946, around 2,000 people were receiving treatment at Hereford Dispensary and three doctors attended the service.[9]

In 2008, the building was converted to a wine bar.[6]
