The second of 2 visits that day. Nocton hall was crumbling around us, but with so many underground passages mixed with staircases to upper levels in the ruined manor, it is a good explore. It’s a hassle free site, but the hanging staircase is only for the brave.
The sprawling old hospital site is worth a visit for its never ending corridors, and expansive wards. Loads more to see, so will have to make a second trip.
Had a bit of a disaster this morning; on my way to pick up King Mongoose from his nightshift, I got my car stuck in the snow in a V dip on a horrible country lane, and had to leave it there all day till the snow melted! My tripod was in my boot, so hope the photos are still of acceptable quality.
The history has been done before, but briefly RAF Nocton Hall was a 740 bed hospital under RAF control from the 1940s until 1984. It was used by civilians and forces personnel until 1984, when it was leased to the USAF as a United States Air Force wartime contingency hospital. It suffered its last brutal fire in 2004.
