History

Cruciform building

It was founded in 1834, eight years after UCL (then known as the University of London), as the North London Hospital in order to provide clinical training for the "medical classes" of the University, after a refusal by the governors of the Middlesex Hospital to allow UCL students access to that hospital's wards. The first major operation under ether in Europe was conducted at University College Hospital by Robert Liston in 1846. It was split from UCL in 1905, and a new building (designed by Alfred Waterhouse), known as the Cruciform building, was opened in 1906, which survives to the present day.
