This place has been mentioned a couple of times recently (and some older pics reposted)
This was as a result of THIS BBC ARTICLE
The article is well worth a read, and covers the history better than I can.
It is a pretty big site:

All the 'barrack' buildings lie derelict, the residents having been moved to the new building on the left of the picture.
I was in the area late this afternoon, so thought I'd drop by.
Because it was a) getting dark and b) I was short of time, I took a look around the older, well hidden, accomodation, ringed in blue in the above pic.
These smaller units are single story 'prefab' buildings with eight or so individual rooms, a comunual kitchen and comunual bathroom.
Although long empty there are still signs of the former inhabitants lives there.
Anyway a few pics,
