Day 039/20. The Worlds Largest Hospital

Today's picture is inside the chapel of what was once the largest hospital in the world.
The Royal Victoria Hospital was built in 1856 and served the British military for over a century. As the British Army’s first purpose built hospital, Royal Victoria was a unique and ambitious project which would help change the face of the medical world.
The chapel is all that remains of the quarter mile long hospital and is home to an interesting heritage exhibition containing the history of the military hospital and photographs and relics from the site's fascinating past.
The extra picture today shows the chapel in today's sun, in the centre of what is now Royal Victoria Country Park, just outside Southampton.,
