The building, which was designed by Charles Wilson[2] in the Scottish baronial style for William Towers-Clark, a solicitor, was completed in 1862.[3] It was converted for medical use and re-opened as a sanatorium in January 1929.[3] The facility joined the National Health Service in 1948.[3] Rifleman James Morris, a soldier from the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles), was admitted to the hospital after a car crash in 1962 and spent 54 years there without recovering before his death in 2017.[4]
