This has been done before, so I'll briefly write the history.
Aston Lunatic Asylum was built around the Aston Hall estate. It is built in blocks dotted around a 3.2 acre site. Serving Derby, it was bought 1924 and was developed into an asylum opening in the early 1930’s. Was open for 70ish years and closed in 2004. A few years back there was a fire in the swimming pool block which totally destroyed the building.
There is no security on site and that was obvious. We came across 3 separate groups of kids getting up to no good in one way or another. Explored with The Wombat.
