Guided visit and was really useful to hear so many stories, even from previous patients, employees and visitors…
History;
RAF Hospital Nocton Hall was a 740-bed RAF hospital in, Lincolnshire serving the predominantly RAF personnel based at the large number of RAF Stations in the area. The facility opened for medical use in June 1947.
The hospital was used by forces personnel, their families and local civilians until it closed as an RAF facility on 31 March 1983. In 1984 it was leased to the USAF for use as a wartime contingency hospital. During the gulf war, over 1,300 US medical staff were sent to the hall and many were billeted at RAF Scampton although ultimately only 35 casualties had to be treated. In its later days 13 American personnel remained to keep the hospital serviceable. The USAF handed back RAF Nocton Hall to the UK Government on 30 September 1995.
Really enjoyed this place, it did have a weird feeling and extreme temperature drop in the surgical and maternity wards, paranormal feels? Who knows… just was a different vibe to the rest of the areas.
Visits can be organised and we spent almost 6 hours walking around. Enjoy some of my favourite photos from the day.
