I know this has been done quite a few times since we went, but this was a nice place with some really good decay in it. Luckily not much graffiti in it, that just seemed to be down one end in a few rooms. I did venture the whole of the upstairs but it was repetitive. But this place had that old hospital feel to it with mould and decay. It is also fairly dark throughout with a few light spots.
We checked out quite a few of the other buildings on site whilst there, but not much joy in getting in.
This is a ward called the Zachary Merton ward and was a convalescent building built in 1936. It was rebranded from the convalescent ward to the Zachary Merton ward in 1961. It's part of the The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital which first opened in 1922. It had a hundred patents in opening and was mainly used for the treatment of TB. The hospital.in later years was under a major NHS reorganization like many hospitals. A lot of the blocks were deemed to be not required anymore.
