Hi Folks,
I was shocked to see this yesterday....
Rolled up to have a look at whether the much discussed and marketed renovation of the remaining hospital ward buildings had progressed, I was absolutely gobsmacked with what I was greeted with (I was only up there 4 weeks ago) - everything gone! Including the water tower...Just huge piles of sorted rubble and a couple of architectural features awaiting collection by the salvagers....
Can't find any information, however they were until recently even marketing the apartments in the old buildings - now to be just another set of ugly houses. What a crying shame.
As you are probably aware - the admin building is now a successful gastropub (with very little, if any mention of the significance of the site present throughout). A couple of outbuildings remain....for now.
Shocked...
