- Portwey Hospital is a former workhouse and hospital located at Weymouth, Dorset, England. Originally built in the 1830s as the Weymouth Union workhouse, it later became Portwey Hospital in the 1930s. After closing in 1987, the building was transformed during the 1990s into the housing development known as Union Court. Built of Portland stone, the former hospital became a Grade II listed building in 1974. English Heritage, in their survey of the building, described it as "somewhat austere, but retains externally much of the early fabric and detail". They added: "to the street it has a simple dignity, enhanced by the economical use of Portland stone". (en)
