An aerial view of the major building work taking place at the site of Blackburn’s Queen’s Park Hospital in 1993 which would transform health care in East Lancashire.
Gradually services would be introduced to the hospital - now the Royal Blackburn - making it the main hospital for the area. The original stone buildings are clearly visible from the air.
