Neasden Hospital was built in 1894 by Willesden District Council as an isolation hospital in Neasden.

During the First World War its name was changed to Willesden Municipal Hospital.[1] When it joined the National Health Service in 1948 it had 200 beds. A newly refurbished theatre block was opened in 1949 with 16 beds for tonsillectomy patients.[1]

In 1985 it was the site of a workers occupation aiming to keep the hospital open.[2] It closed in 1986.[1]
