It opened behind the much larger Northgate Hospital in 1906 as an Isolation Hospital for infectious diseases and later served as a V.D Clinic.

There was a naval asylum, if that's the one you're referring to? I think that one was on what's now the James Paget Hospital site.

Is Richards in Yarmouth the same company as the one that used to be at Lowestoft Shuck?[/QUOYes there was a Richards in Lowestoft Hypo but the company was founded in Gt Yarmouth, The Naval Hospital you talk about was a Naval Hospital in around 1800 for the Crimean War and then turnd into The infamous St Nicholas Lunatic Asylum, it is a massive building a Grade 1 Listed and now is converted into Luxury flats. There was no Hospital on the site of the Paget, and before the Paget as there was a Gt Yarmouth General Hospital near St Georges Park which closed in th late 70s. Hope that helps Hypo.
