Harperbury Hospital, near Radlett in Hertfordshire was my first ever explore, in January 2008. I visited a couple of times shortly after that, but since then I've not returned.
Today I visited with Winchester for what will probably be the last time ever, as a large part of the site (currently along Meadow Avenue) is in the process of being demolished.

On my previous visits I only ever saw the green padded cell on the Western side of the site (The Common), however today I was lucky enough to see a further two on the Eastern side (Meadow Ave) by the looks of it days before they'll be gone for good.

For the most part the site is as I remember, albeit slightly brighter in parts due to the lack of substantial roofs.

As many of you will know, Harperbury is a mostly uninspiring site, but as its my local and also was my first ever explore - I feel a certain degree of sadness that it'll be gone for good in the very near future.
For anyone wanting to get a last visit in, get there quick.
