Stobhill was originally a Poor Law hospital, commissioned by the Glasgow Parish Council, to an 1899-1900, John James Burnet-judged competition winning design by Glasgow architects, Thomson & Sandilands. The foundation stone was laid in September 1901 by Lord Balfour of Burleigh, the then Secretary of State for Scotland, and Stobhill Hospital was formally opened on 15 September 1904; the same day as the Western District Hospital at Oakbank in Maryhill and the Eastern District Hospital at Duke Street. The original buildings are now protected as category B listed buildings.
It was built with 1,867 beds organised in several two-storey red brick Nightingale ward blocks on a sprawling, 47-acre (190,000m2) campus on the edge of Springburn Park. The Hamiltonhill Branch of the Lanarkshire and Dunbartonshire Railway, which ran past the northern boundary of the hospital grounds, facilitated the transport of coal and supplies to the hospital. The cost of the building was £250,000. It featured a large clocktower at the centre of the site, which has become a dominant landmark in the north of the city. The motto of the new hospital was Health is Wealth.

Gripple worked in partnership with Kinetic and MEF Ltd to provide Modular suspension solutions for electrical services at the new Stobhill mental health unit in Glasgow. The installation was quick and easy for the contractors on site as the modules were deliver pre-assembled and ready to install, saving valuable time and money throughout the project.
