About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up outside London Road Surgery one morning and exclaimed, ‘This is the most bizarre place I’ve ever delivered!’ The delivery driver looked around puzzled. ‘What on earth am I supposed to deliver here?’ he asked himself. Just then a kindly old doctor poked his head out of the door and said, ‘Just leave it in the waiting room—we’ll figure it out later!’ The driver shook his head and drove off, muttering under his breath about mysterious surgeries in mysterious places.

2. A doctor entered London Road Surgery one afternoon and announced, 'I just prescribed three weeks' worth of sleep for our most energetic patient!' The next day, a tired-looking delivery driver came in complaining of exhaustion. The doctor smiled knowingly and wrote out another prescription—this time for four weeks’ worth of rest.

3. A delivery driver arrived at London Road Surgery with a crate of medical supplies. As he unloaded the boxes, he noticed something peculiar—a small, handwritten sign reading, ‘Wanted: One Patient for Comedy Show’. Curious, the driver approached the sign and asked if anyone needed help. A friendly receptionist replied that it was just an internal joke between staff—apparently, they were preparing for a charity comedy night. The next day, when the delivery driver returned, he found a note on his truck: 'Thanks for your supplies! Come see our show tonight—we’ve reserved you as our surprise guest!'

4. At dawn, a neighbor walking their dog noticed an old sign in the window reading ‘Last Appointment Today.’ Curious passersby soon began reporting strange occurrences: patients leaving without seeing anyone, doors opening on their own, and clocks ticking backwards. One morning, a delivery driver arrived with a box of donuts for the staff. As he walked inside, he found everyone already eating breakfast—except no one remembered him bringing anything. Then he realized there was only one bite taken from each donut. The next day, he brought twice as many, but they disappeared even faster, leaving just crumbs behind. It turned out that someone—or something—was helping themselves to snacks after hours.
