	GO BRITANNIA! Travel Guide: London Attractions - Old Operating Theatre Museum
		The roof garret of the church of St Thomas' contains Britain's oldest operating theatre, dating from 1821.
		The timber garret was used by the apothecary for the storage and curing of herbs to be used in medicine.
		The theatre witnessed the advent of anesthesia in 1846 and closed three years before Lister began his experiments in antiseptic surgery and provides an evocative reminder of the incredible medical advances over the last 150 years.

	The Seattle Times: Travel: Wincing at medical history in an offbeat London museum
		The museum preserves an early 19th-century operating theater (as an operating room is called in Britain) that's the oldest in the country, along with dimly lit attic rooms where medicinal herbs were cured and stored.
		Amputations were the most common operation in those early days of surgery, and most of the patients were poor women from the surrounding Southwark neighborhood of South London.
		Contemporary descriptions of operations say the doctors' clothing was "stiff and stinking with puss and blood." After St. Thomas hospital moved to another area of London in the 1860s, the operating room was closed and forgotten for decades, with its entrance bricked up.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Old Operating Theatre
		The oldest surviving operating theatre in the country (dating from 1822), used in the days before anaesthetics and antiseptic surgery.
		The old frock coats worn by surgeons during operations were, according to a contemporary, 'stiff and stinking with pus and blood'.
		The death rate was further heightened by the shock of the operation, and because operations took place as a last resort, patients tended to have few reserves of strength.

	The Old Operating Theatre, Museum & Herb Garret venue at Old Operating Theatre Museum - Museums - Around Town - ...
		The Old Operating Theatre Museum is one of those tiny, quirky museums that generally get overlooked by the Madame Tussauds crowd, and are probably the better for it.
		In the centre is a plain wooden operating table – in fact salvaged from University College Hospital, but from the same period – where the grim procedures took place.
		The theatre predates the use of anaesthetics and antiseptics, and it must have been a place of unspeakable horror for patients and surgeons alike.
