Recent video of the beautiful example of what was the workhouse and Infirmary. On our first visit the seclusion rooms where visible now reduced to rubble.
Been visiting this place for many years apart from the old Workhouse buildings which have almost disappeared, today we visited the chapel.
Here are a few pics
Added an update of the workhouse conditions too.

Apparently there is a padded cell in a basement here but not much remains! It was a nice relaxed explore, even when seccas came in!
A lovely little chapel. The hospital is quite modern in parts but if you keep to the west side it retains some old character.
I've been wanting to visit this place for a while, so we decided to stop by and have a look around, it does look worse than I thought it would be, it's absolutely trashed now. Lots of work has been going on and everything has been stripped bare. From what I was told, one of the rooms that has...

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...
Hi all this was my first explore on my second visit to this place, It kind of held a special sort of fascination for me as I spent many a happy weekend with my Grandmother who lived just up the road from here when I was a child and then much later on in my early teens racing motorcycles up and...
