Could you add location (general area) and month visited to the title please?

Looks interesting!

I'm local to the area so if there's anything you want to know please DM me and i will give you the location

Drove past this place thinking it was a health center as only the small buildings were visible ffom the main road. On parking and having a nosey, i realised there were lots of other bigger buildings around. Eventually figuring out it was an infirmary. Think i got lucky as there was easy access, no security and the camera's didn't appear to be working. Power was still on to the lights. I believe they have sorted out the security now.

Looks awesome but it's now 2021 can you still get into the building? Can anyone let me know as myself and other's who are urban explorer's are interested thanks

Is there a Morgue? There has to be a Morgue, not unless the Deceased would be collected by an undertakers?

Probably as it's Victorian. It's been there a very long time

If you're local go and have a look for yourself? Why ask someone else to do it for you?

Hi! Thank you! This helped me a lot! In 1959-60, I spent 4 months as a patient with TB in this hospital. I am now (at 66 years old) writing a book about the experience. I was in the ward on the first floor - to the right of the Conservatory that's built on top of the porch - when viewed from the street. I would be keen to hear anyting you can remember about this ward. In particular, I'd like to know if there were steps from the ward down to the conservatory. Looking at the building in Google street view, I think there would have to be 2-3 steps - but my memory fails me!

It's just gone up for auction 2022. To become luxury flats. As it's a grade 2 listed building. It's patrolled by security guards now. The place is pretty much all borded up now & there's security cameras around the place. I've friends who live in Bridgwater Somerset
