Summary
[edit]DescriptionDr Gray's Hospital, Elgin (51349510001).jpg |
"Doctor Gray’s Hospital, is a project of splendid benevolence in conception and of equal architectural splendour in execution. Alexander Gray was a native of Elgin who made a considerable fortune in India and when he died in 1816 bequeathed £20,000 to provide a hospital ‘for the sake of the Town and County of Elgin’. The plan was inspired by similar institutions founded in the larger Scottish cities in the preceding period, but nowhere had such generous provision been made in a town of the size of Elgin (about 4,000 at this time). The design of an appropriate building was entrusted to the distinguished Edinburgh architect, James Gillespie Graham, who erected it on a commanding site at the west end of the High Street between 1816 and 1819. The main frontage is of three storeys. Regrettably though understandably, the original attic windows have been heightened and the entablature broken to provide better accommodation within, but the balustraded parapet, Tuscan portico, and well-proportioned dome maintain an architectural discipline that make this still one of the most effective classical buildings of its period". Ronald Gordon Cant, Historic Elgin and Its Cathedral (1974), 17. |
