The Original Monmouth Hospital
This beautiful building was left in trust to the people of Monmouth to be used as a hospital. It served Monmouth very well until some years ago when the council decided it was outdated and sold it! There was much debate as to whether this was a legal action as the building wasn’t theirs to sell. A brand new hospital has been built in Monmouth to replace it but this wonderful piece of architecture has stood idle and is rapidly falling into disrepair. Somebody has written on its side wall – I Don’t Want To Be a Bunch Of Homes – I think that sums up the feelings of the people of Monmouth quite well.
What a waste.

What a great building, so unfortunate that it is left to decay. It has such charm. Beautiful shot.

Thanks Pamela – it will be a loss to Monmouth if they knock it down to build housing
