Square 8vo. viii, 64 pp. Frontispiece, 18 plates. Black gilt-stamped cloth. Very good. "The hospital was established at home of Armstrong Todd, a surgeon, in Great Marylebone Street as the Hospital for Stone and Diseases of the Urinary Organs in 1860. It moved to Berners Street and became the St Peter's Hospital for Stone in 1863. It moved again, this time to a purpose-built facility in Henrietta Street, designed by J. M. Brydon in the Queen Anne style . . . It closed in 1948. / The hospital joined with St Paul's Hospital to form the Institute of Urology in 1948. The Institute was joined by St Philip's Hospital in 1952 and the hospitals became known as 'the three Ps.' After services were transferred to the Middlesex Hospital the Institute closed in 1992. The building in Henrietta Street has since been converted for residential use." [Wikip.].
