Northgate Psychiatric Hospital - Great find

[SNAKEBITE]

When was this place built?

It doesn't look too old from the design.

Great report!

Agreed but I fear it's only a matter of time :-(

Just to add a note to this post. Prior to being used as a Psychiatric Hospital, it was actually the local maternity hospital. My son was one of the last children born there before it closed in April 1985. I know tunnels in the main local hospital are primarily there to carry electrical cables but I'am not sure if it is the same in this one.

Thanks yes actually I put this in by mistake - how do I edit my post?

Editting your post is easy - hit the edit button at the bottom of the original post. If you blur out the info on the pic and upload it then alter the text within the original post for that image to reflect the new image. That's the easy way.

Cheers... hope that makes sense.

Brilliant pics, would love to go there and spend a whole week exploring them tunnels.

No wonder the NHS has a shortage of beds, would have thought they could have been put to use somewhere else and that bath tub on wheels?? looks scary lol. Nice to see them lovely stained glass windows still intact and never ceases to amaze me at the stuff lying around that shows ex-patients personal details

Thanks for sharing Dan!

Great report, thought to myself that is nice and local, must pop down lunch time!

You can imagine my surprise when I turned into the main entrance to find most of the hospital is still open and working, it is just this wing that is closed!

Had a wander to try to find an entry point but met two workmen re-securing an opening, as I had snuck out of work had a shirt and tie on so they ignored me and I made my exit.

Guess the tunnel is now even more interesting!

Will return soon!
