Guys Hospital
Guys, or more properly Guys & St Thomas Hospital is the oldest hospital still around in some way. Described as ancient in 1215, it is hard to imagine the distillation of pain, hope, grief and transcendance that has seeped into the ground. This shot is of the later part, built around 1700. If you look hard enough, you can almost see those old sawbones.....

Yes it is, she had a long association with Guys Hospital.
Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure and that helped my sanity.
