Tregaron Hospital (Welsh: Ysbyty Tregaron) is a community hospital in Tregaron, Wales. It is managed by the Hywel Dda University Health Board.

History

The hospital has its origins in the Aberaeron Union Workhouse which was completed in 1876.[1] It became a facility for the treatment of tuberculosis sufferers known as the King Edward VII Memorial Hospital in 1915.[1] In 2016 the health board made proposals to replace the hospital with a health centre.[2]
