Military Hospital Shimla also known as Walker Hospital, came into being in 1902, by a banker by the name of Sir James Walker. The hospital was originally to open up in the Gorton Castle, where the Accountant General’s office stands today. Walker had bought Gorton Castle for Rs 80,000 and wished to gift it for the hospital. After much discussion and persuasion, the building was acquired for the Civil Secretariat of the Imperial Government of India that housed the Legislative, Lands, Education, Home Health and Finance departments, and Sir Walker was given an alternate site where Walker Hospital was constructed for European patients.nnThe hospital was finally converted into a military hospital in 1954. But on December 22, 1998, fire struck the hospital at midnight, reducing it into ashes. As it was a wooden structure, the blaze spread quickly, leaving little to control the fire. The entire building was engulfed in flames as the thick coating of paint made the wood all the more inflammable. Everything was over within minutes.
