The C. P. R. Hospital or the Civil Hospital (formerly known as Albert Edward Hospital) situated on the Bhausingji Road near the old Queen's or Rani Circle. The main building of the hospital is an example of English architecture of Gothic style of the nineteenth century. It has constructed between 1881 and 1884 at a cost of Rs. 3 lakhs. It is a two storeyed structure with a small portion behind the porch at the entrance going up to three or four stores. This portion has a steep tiled roof ending up with wrought iron railing at the top.
The hospital has accommodation for 200 patients. On the ground floor are the administrative offices and a small general ward. On the first floor are two general wards, the one on the right hand side as one goes up the staircase, is a female and children's ward and the other slightly higher up on the left is the male ward. There is a well-equipped operation theatre on the first floor. Behind the main building, there is a newly constructed T. B. Ward and a small ward for infectious diseases. On the southern side, there are special rooms in what called Nursing Home. In the open space in front of the main building on the southern side, there is the outpatient department with X-Ray arrangement. This building is comparatively a recent construction.
There is a separate maternity home attached to the Civil Hospital. This has known as Padma Raje Maternity Home. It is in the same compound as the main hospital but is at the other end. It is a two-stored building.
