OLD DINORWIC QUARRY HOSPITAL

The quarry hospital was built in 1860.

It was mostly maintained by the mens own contributions to a sick club.

The club provided free medical care a weekly

payment due to absence from work

through sickness or injury, a small payment on retirement and burial expenses.

It was one of the first buildings to have hot and cold water and electricity.

It closed in 1962 and was later restored by Gwynedd Council re-opening as a Visitor centre in 1979.
