Northwood and Pinner Cottage Hospital was built as a war memorial in Northwood, London and opened in 1920.

At the end of 1983 it was the site of a workers occupation aiming to keep the hospital open. This was followed by a successful Judicial Review of the decision by Hillingdon District Health Authority to close it

The hospital closed in 2008 after the Hillingdon Primary Care Trust stated it had become too costly to maintain. In 2010 the trust announced the hospital would remain empty for another four years while funding was used to improve services in other areas of the London Borough of Hillingdon. In 2011 the trust said the hospital could remain closed for a further ten years. A potential option of selling the hospital by September 2012 was stated in the minutes of a budget meeting of NHS Hillingdon.
