Castle Hill Hospital is an NHS hospital to the west of Cottingham, East Riding of Yorkshire, England, and is run by Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust.
The hospital is on the site of the large castellated mansion known as Cottingham Castle, which burnt down in 1861. Hull Sanatorium, designed by Joseph Hirst, was built on the site in 1913-16, and in 1928 the City Hospital for infectious diseases was moved from its original Hedon Road site to newly erected buildings on this site.
In the late 2000's major construction work took place on a new £65 million Cancer Centre, which opened in August 2008, and a £30 million cardiology centre, which opened in early 2009.
Castle Hill Hospital is home to the Daisy Building, the headquarters of the Daisy Charity. The charity support research into cancer, dementia, cardiological and haematological illnesses, and respiratory medicine.
