Dist:0.2km<br/>Not yet open and surrounded by screens, this stop is somewhat west of the current stop for route 200. Both are turn round stops, the bus departing the way it came. Repositioning is consequent to the redevelopment of the old hospital site.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The hospital was opened in 1869 following a donation of £100,000 by Mr Atkinson Morley, a wealthy hotelier and landowner, to St George's Hospital "for receiving, maintaining, and generally assisting convalescent poor patients". Mr Atkinson Morley had been a medical student at St George's Hospital, Hyde Park Corner about 1800. The hospital remained a convalescent home until 1939. During World War II, when the Bolingbroke and St. George’s acted as emergency hospitals for war casualties, the Neurosurgery Unit was established at the AMH by the neurosurgeon Sir Wylie McKissock. As the Regional Neurosciences Unit for South West London, the hospital even had its own helicopter landing facility. The hospital remained open until 2003. There are now plans to convert it to residential accommodation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atkinson_Morley_Hospital
