History

The facility has its origins in the Ffestiniog Union Workhouse which opened in 1839.[1] It became the Ffestiniog Public Assistance Institution in 1930 and joined the National Health Service as Bron y Garth Hospital in 1948.[1] After services transferred to Ysbyty Alltwen, Ysbyty Bron y Garth closed in 2009.[2][3]
