Hi
The Wick Combination Fever Hospital was set up to deal with fever cases. The first permanent hospital for fever was actually set up in 1849 - the first in Highland I think. It then moved to the Harrow Park building which was replace in 1910 by the Wick Town and County which then was a fever hospital. The best current source of infomation on it is the book Amulets to Isotopes by Dr David Boyd which is all about medicine in Caithness. Dr Boyd was a consultant in the Caithness General. I am presently researching the hospitals of Caithness - wedsite at www.historyofhighlandhospitals.com. Feel free to get back to me if you would like to know more.
