Cannot find any history about this place only what I got told from a local man who I know but still very interesting and leaves lots to the imagination.
This house was with-in the grounds of an old hospital with is now waste land. It was for recovery many years ago for some mentally challenged people?? then it did become an elderly care home.
My source says it has been empty since at least 1985?
Sadly vandals over many years have made it a mess, it has been on fire 3 times, the worst in 2011 which finished the floors and most of the roof.
I was here in November 2013 and was told by a dog walker to be carefull as teens with drugs hang out here and a body was found in the house a year ago?? pos local gossip but plays well on the mind whilst walking around.

Thank you for looking, hope you enjoyed them,

it's alright this. the body was found on the road that led up to the former nursing home which like you has been demolished. And has had many more fires than the three, I only live up the road from here too
 
Thanx for the info, i was just going off gossip, that's how I found the building. I have been driving past the entrance for 14years and never really noticed it.

Any idea how it got there?
 
Well no danger of restoring this place eh? I've said it before, I'll never understand the imbecility of those who would wantonly destroy other peoples' property just because it is empty. It still has an owner! Anyway, on a lighter note, nice report and good photo's.
 
Certainly not how it works here, your right Beady.
Sophsrane, take a few mins to read the forum rules to get an understanding of this place before you post another comment. You have not done yourself any favours on the grounds of first impressions.

Nice photos Mr Beady, great find.
 
Thank you Mr Beady for the paper link, scary to think what happens these days. Your blog is also very cool and some stunning pictures.
