A hospital should be rebuilt on a new site to better serve the area for the next 50 years, its boss has said.The original hospital building was constructed in 1839. Some wards on the hospital are more than 175 years old., including Newbury Showground and White Waltham Airfield. It is one of 48 trusts that will receive government funding to rebuild or construct new hospitals by 2030.residents might not be able to reach the potential new sitesSteve McManus, chief executive of Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust, said: "We've clearly got physical estate that consumes levels of maintenance that, in more modern buildings, because of the physical environment, we know that money would be better applied.
He said the ability to create a brand new hospital on a new site "would probably give us the best opportunity to use some of that investment". "To really create a hospital that would stand the test of time over the next, not just 10 or 20 years but 50 years and beyond," he added.
