Barrow Hospital was first built between 1934-1937 with the first patients being admitted in 1938. . Barrow was made up of lots of small buildings in a colony style.

During World War II the hospital was requisitioned by the British government as use as a Naval Hospital. In 1946 the Navy left and the hospital finally reverted back to its intentional use in late 1948.

Barrow is famous for being labelled the 'Dirtiest hospital in Britain' in 2005. Following this, the hospital closed in 2006 and was left to decay

Where on eartyh did that little red peddle car come from??? that wasn't there before Christmas when we did the place. Did you not see the fantastic Npoah's Ark mural in the mother & baby unit? It might be a mess but it's not a bad explore is it!

Cheers...
 
Yes we got as far as the mother and baby unit before being spotted and pursued by a couple of blokes in a landrover who we suspected were the ones with the air rifle, they were nice enough but we decided to steer clear! It was definitely a bit trashed but not a bad mooch :)

With an air rifle??? bastards. I take it you weren't harmed? I hope not!!! We saw no one the entire time we were on site but we kept VERY low anyway.
