History
The hospital was established as the Pwllheli Cottage Hospital in 1924.[1] It was extended by the erection of two wards to create a naval hospital to support the naval training facility HMS Glendower during the Second World War.[2] After it joined the National Health Service in 1948, a prefabricated ward block for geriatric patients was added in 1974.[1] The new Llynfor Ward was opened in newly-refurbished facilities in July 2019.[3]
