This place was the second site we visited on our trip to North Wales and it was an off chance we would see anything after hearing about the reputation of Mr Pierce so we thought we would pop and have a look anyway.
On arrival we was shocked to see families roaming the grounds and no sign of Pierce. After a little research we found that recently the old fella was attacked which I find out of order as he had worked at the hospital all his life, and was only trying to protect the building he loved.
It is a shame all the work he did was to no avail as there has been a number of fires, and with mother nature taking over the buildings ,they are starting to collapse on themselves.
Now i have been exploring for many years and knew it was time for myself and chris34 to pull back as on exploring upper levels we could hear the wood and mortar cracking with every step we took as if more floors was about to collapse so in short this site has got to be on the top of my list of most dangerous.
The site which was built to be a hospital in 1848 and closed in 1995 has a glimmer of hope to be built into flats and houses as it is grade 2 listed but no sign of works being carried out yet.
This was a short explore as by the time it taken us to drive from red dress manor time was not on our side and we was losing light fast.
