This room is richly-decorated and so is likely to be a domestic room belonging to one of the hospital's officials. The hospital was originally built by the Guild of St George in the fifteenth century, and was taken by Robert Dudley, Lord Leicester, in 1571 and converted into a pensioners' hospital. Notes on the reverse of the photograph mount record that the image was likely to have been taken by either Bernard Moore of Birmingham or P J Deakin.
Previously held in the collection of the National Monuments Record in London.
