I’ve been interested in exploring for a while now but only recently started giving it a proper go - getting a decent camera helped too! Hope this report is ok, will be the first of many

After many many failed attempts I thought I’d never get into this place but as building works continue I just had to give it another shot and was in luck!
Unfortunately most of the building had been gutted out but the original architecture still remained. Unfortunately we couldn’t gain access to the clock tower as this was completely closed off! That particular part of the building was lit up with portable lights so we creeped around quietly thinking there might’ve still been workers there... thankfully not! Some parts were ready for demolition but the main building (which I believe is listed) is currently being renovated into luxury accommodation in a 60m redevelopment.

The hospital was opened in 1879 and was shut in 1996. It was the first hospital to take on casualties from the Western Front during World War I and also the first hospital to perform plastic surgery within the British colonised countries - doubt there was much in the way of anesthetic back then, ouch!


Can’t tell you how happy I was to finally explore this place. I remember seeing the old pictures from this place which partly ignited my love for urban exploring. One of which was the infamous bleeding doors! Unfortunately they had been removed! (or perhaps we just couldn’t find it!)

Glad you managed to get inside finally, I attempted this one in 2018 and accidentally set of a motion sensor alarm due to the construction workers so I wasn’t able to get a good look around!
Nice shots
