Custodial history:
The hospital was established in 1855 at 9 Oxford Street, Manchester, and was then known as the Manchester Institution for Diseases of the Ear, sometimes shortened to Manchester Ear Institution. It underwent a series of moves: to 6 Lower Mosley Street in 1867, to 25 Byrom Street in 1877, to 23 Byrom Street in 1883, then finally to Grosvenor Square, All Saints, in 1910. It was whilst at 23 Byrom Street that the first Matron was appointed, that accommodation for in-patients was first provided (1893) and the Institution changed its name to Manchester Ear Hospital (1896).
