Note. Pictures 1 to 3 by the author. Picture 4 by Lewis Greaves on his cellphone.
NOTES: It appears that this hospital does not have a defined helipad as such within the hospital confines. (Or didn't by 2022). Instead helicopters delivering patients use Whitecliff Harbourside Park, a public park to the south east of the hospital.
The first three pictures of the Augusta-Westland AW139, G-CGWB, were taken on the 6th June 2011, when it appears it was operated by HM Coastguard based at PORTLAND OSPREY QUAY on Portland Bill south of Weymouth.
The fourth picture (taken circa 2010) is of the Eurocopter EC135 (G-DORS) operated by Bond Air Services on behalf of the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance and then based at HENSTRIDGE. This picture appears to have been taken in Poole Park, near the playground.
