Report - Carlton Hayes Chapel, Leicestershire - Dec 2014

[mattdonut]

The hospital was built in 1904 as the County Lunatic Asylum to the designs of S.P. Pick, an accomplished and prolific Leicester architect working in a vaguely Art Nouveau manner. It finally closed in 1996 when the site was purchased by Alliance and Leicester for their new headquarters.
the Chapel sits left alone in a corner covered in ivy..
