Castleberg Hospital is a health facility in Raines Road, Giggleswick, North Yorkshire, England. It is managed by Airedale NHS Foundation Trust.
History
The facility had its origins in the Settle Union Workhouse which opened in 1834.[1] A new infirmary was added in 1900.[1] It became the Settle Public Assistance Institution in 1930 and then joined the National Health Service as Castleberg Hospital in 1948.[2] It closed in April 2017 because of concerns over its power supply, heating and drainage[3] but, after a major refurbishment, it re-opened again in September 2019.[4]
