In this 1902 report there is a reference to Amble Hospital. Alnwick Council appears to be trying to get Amble councillors to take Smallpox cases into 'Amble Hospital' if the need arises. They get told where to go.
Next in that report is reference to services and a lease for a 'Smallpox Hospital' which appears to be a different building - apparently on Lawson-Smith's land. Probably proposed or under construction at this time. This must be the isolation hospital on the Links.
