History

The facility had its origins in a workhouse infirmary built for the Aylesbury Poor Law Union Workhouse at Bierton Hill and completed in the late 19th century.[1] The workhouse became Tindal Hospital during the Second World War and, more recently, the main block became home to a mental health facility known as the Tindal Centre.[1] After services had transferred to the Whiteleaf Centre in Aylesbury, the Tindal Centre closed in 2014.[2]

The gate lodges and piers which date from 1844 are Grade II listed.[3]
