Dr Milleys Hospital is an almshouse for women in Lichfield, United Kingdom. It was founded on property given by Bishop Heyworth in 1424 for the use of the poor[1] .

The Hospital is named after Thomas Milley, a Canon residentiary of Lichfield Cathedral, who re-endowed and probably rebuilt the Hospital between 1502 and 1504.

It was extensively refurbished in the 1980's and still operates as accommodation for women of all ages in ned of accommodation. [2]
