The Leper Hospital of St Mary Magdalene at Baldock, Hertfordshire.
The remains of the old Leper Hospital in Baldock have been identified. In the parish church of St Mary's in Clothall, medieval glass roundels show Mary Magdalene with left sided facial palsy. This is the oldest visual art depiction of this condition.
