CAMBRIDGE MILITARY HOSPITAL, ALDERSHOT. After changing my mind about heading 'oop narth' at the last minute and a miserable fail at my first port of call, I found myself peering through the fences of this southern beauty. Failure was not an option today as this had happened here a few weeks...

My god this one seems like a long time ago now! This is one of those places you get into and think 'holy cow' (or words to that effect!). Closed at just about the same time as Cane Hill did in 1992 with it's location right in the centre of Mansfield and pretty much surrounded by houses on all...

So this was my second outing, explored alone. I only managed to get into one building, I think it may have been a residential one. Nothing in the way of medical equipment, which was a shame... I only spotted one way into the main building, but didn't fancy attempting it alone. Anyway, here are...

If you like ur pealy paint it's now lookin good SK :)

visited with obscurity and Mrs obs ... a little history ... The hospital was first built between 1934-1937 with the first patients being admitted in 1938. Barrow was built in a more modern style than the nearby Bristol Lunatic Asylum - The Glenside, which was a huge imposing Victorian building...

Well I finally managed to drag my arse up here and take a look at the place. I've been meaning to do this for years, so when Raptor Jesus and me were contemplating how to fill what would otherwise have been a fairly boring Sunday, a text from Kent Urbex asking if I knew what the state of play...

About the Site St Augustine’s Hospital (1875–1993) was a psychiatric hospital in Chartham, Kent. It was founded as the second, or East, Kent County Asylum in 1872. In 1948 the hospital became part of the National Health Service and was renamed St Augustine's Hospital. St Augustine's Hospital...

This place has been "on the list" for a while, so I'm pleased that myself and Obscurity have finally got round to doing it after 2 failed attempts earlier in the year - it didn't disappoint! There's quite a bit of history to this place, so here goes. (shamelessly stolen from Wikipedia) It's...

Benenden Hospital was founded in 1907 as a sanatorium for Post Office employees and developed into the (subscription paying) hospital of the Civil Service & Post Office staff. The name of the organisation is now the Benenden Healthcare Society though the principles of the organiation are as...

This is one pretty local to me and after an afternoon out with Wevsky and Justin we had been talking about how trashed the place had become. Recent photos show rooms full of graffiti and loads of the interesting bits now gone or smashed up. A recent report on the Hospital by 2wid showed off the...

This was a bit of a last minute explore - I decided I should take my scooter on its first Urbex mission :mrgreen: Visited alone nice and early in the morning so no bother from any locals. I can't find much History for this place, but I know it started out as a Workhouse and stayed that way...

Big thanks to the guys who found this, and Obscurity and Wevsky for some help. We origenally intended to do this last week, but alas it wasn't to be. One week later, and with a bit of lateral thinking we were inside. :D This hospital has been known by several different names in its time...
