Derbyshire Royal Infirmary, Derby - June 2009

[james.s]

i've seen a news report about a fire breaking out in Aston hall in November 2008, has this damaged much of it or is the main buildings still all in tact do you know?

Well, that's a different hospital but what the hey!
The fire has only affected one room in the main hall part of the building. The rest is free from fire damage. It is heavily vandalised though so is basically a stripped out shell

Good pics, the west field in the background looks so ugly concrete block of shit selling overpriced rubbish!

As James says - main hall got a bit bashed, its not worth the effort to be honest - plenty of better hospitals in the vicinity (and I'm not referring to this one).

Its a matter of debate, the Royal Derby Hospital is vastly superior then the former Derbyshire Royal Infirmary, however its location and particularly the inadequate parking are a major problem, hopefully these problems will be addressed in the near future.
