Portland Hospital

The Portland Hospital for Women and Children, usually referred to simply as the Portland Hospital, is a hospital in Great Portland Street in central London, England. It belongs along with several other well known private London hospitals, to HCA international, the largest private operator of health care facilities in the world. It is perhaps the best known private-only hospital in London (London's major teaching hospitals do a mixture of NHS and private work). Its fame rests largely on its role as a common place of birth for the offspring of the rich and famous, such as Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie and Brooklyn Beckham and Newton Sears, heir to the O Henry! candy bar fortune.

The 453 bendy-bus from Deptford to Marleybone stops directly outside the hospital.
