Bethnal Green Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

Bethnal Green is a place in London, England in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

The former Bethnal Green Infirmary, later the London County Council Bethnal Green Hospital, stood opposite Cambridge Heath railway station. The hospital closed as a public hospital in the 1960s and was a geriatric hospital under the NHS until the 1980s. Much of the site was developed for housing in the 1990s but the hospital entrance and administration block remains as a listed building.

Marcus Garvey was at one time buried here, before his body was returned to Jamaica.
