Hi all,
I know this place has been done before but I liked it.:)
I went to the hospital last November for a little scout around, whilst looking I noticed securtiy fencing along with security protecting the perimiters. Rather than helping myself I went in and approched a gaurd. I asked who was in charge to try and get permission for a wonder around explaining what my intensions were. The gaurd took me to a portocabin where the site foreman came out. I told him what I wanted to do and to be fair was very pleasent and accomidating. He explained I could not go in the newer part of the building as aspestos was been removed and the older building as vandals had just done that much damage it was unsafe. He loaned me a hard hat, I had my own hi-viz and safety boots on, with sercuity escorting me I went off with my NIKON to see where I could get in to.....

HISTORY IN BRIEF...The hospital was the second major institution built by the Guardians of the Huddersfield Poor Law Union.

The first was built at Deanhouse in 1862 and provided accommodation for 300 sick and harmless mental patients. St Luke's, originally known as Crossland Moor Institution was opened in 1872 for 400 poor and sick of every type.

In 1930 the hospital was taken over from the Board of Guardians by Huddersfield County Borough. Before the operating theatre was added in 1954 all surgical patients were sent to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary.

In 1948 the hospital was taken over by the Huddersfield Hospital Management Committee and extensively rebuilt. Hope you enjoy what I could find..
