No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital

The No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital was a World War I military hospital established in Codford, Wiltshire, England, taking over from a Royal Army Medical Corps Hospital. No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital was opposite the New Zealand Command Depot, known as Codford Camp, and was a few miles from Sling Camp. The depot accommodated 2,500 men and the proximity of Sling Camp meant that a hospital nearby was necessary. 
The hospital initially had around 300 beds but this was later expanded to 1000 beds. Attached to the hospital was a venereal-disease (VD) section with 500 beds. No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital also included hospital huts which were known as the No. 11 Camp, where many of the VD patients were treated. The VD section was separated from the rest of the hospital by barbed wire to prevent general convalescent patients from associating with those who had VD.
Though the hospital was completely equipped much like its sister hospitals, No. 1 New Zealand General Hospital and No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital, the No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital did not take convoys of wounded, so dealt with mostly non-serious cases, such as pneumonia.
Commemoration.
One of the original 49 bells at the National War Memorial Carillion is named for the Codford Hospital. The Codford bell was given by returned soldier James Finlay in memory of Garfield Warin and Nurse Kathleen Hollis who worked at the No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital. Finlay contracted pneumonia whilst training, and was sent to the No. 3 New Zealand General Hospital for treatment.
