Fantastic wee hospital!
The place was built in 1922 and at the outbreak of WW2 assisted the RAF base nearby. After the war it converted to a tuberculosis sanitorium but as cases of TB in Scotland started to drop it was decided to be used as a clinic to help the mentally handicapped from the mid 50s. It closed in 97 and has unfortunately been pretty badly treated in some spots. Some of the buildings have quite a creepy vibe, but then that might just be me! With the number of buildings there, you really could spend a few hours exploring, I just got too nervous and left after about an hour and half
I've had issues attaching photos to other reports but hopefully this time it works first time!
