One of the many huge corridors in an abandoned asylum. Featured in TUNNEL VISION 21st Nov, 2009 West Park Asylum (or West Park Hospital) was a large psychiatric hospital in Epsom, Surrey. The hospital was designed by William C. Clifford-Smith (architect to the London County Council), who was also involved in the design of nearby St Ebba’s Hospital. The hospital had been in planning since 1906, and by 1917 it was largely complete; however, the outbreak of war postponed opening until 1923. When complete the hospital could cater for around 2,000 patients of mixed class, and hence the site had extensive boiler houses and plant rooms, a large laundry and a substantial water tower. There were enormous kitchens located behind the canteen, and in turn this was behind the main hall/ballroom. However, the main hall suffered an arson attack on September 30th 2003 and is now a burnt out shell. The asylum also boasted its own railway but this was removed in 1950, and no trace remains except around the central engineering block. The main stores and sewing rooms were also located here, but other services, such as the mortuary and chapel, were located by the entrance road, along with two lodges for the matrons and a large manor for the superintendent. The hospital was slowly run down from the mid 1990s, and by 2003 most of the hospital was closed and derelict. A few outer ward buildings and villas remain open today and are still used for psychiatric treatment. As the hospital is largely derelict, it is of increasing interest to urban explorers who visit for the sheer size of the hospital, and also for many hospital items still in situ, such as beds, drugs, kitchen equipment and personal items. A padded cell is also of interest to explorers. The hospital was the last great London asylum, and the last of the Epsom Cluster, a group of 5 mental institutes (the others being Horton, Manor, Long Grove and St Ebba’s.) The asylum follows the compact arrow design, with external villas

Yet another Abandoned Asylum explore. This is Deva Asylum’s Sun Room where patients would probably come and sit, chillout and have a nice cup of tea. Unfortunately the diggers and bulldozers are ripping this beautiful place down very quickly. Why no preservation order?? :-( History / Deva Asylum lies in the grounds of the very active Countess Of Chester Hospital in Chester, the asylum was built in 1827 and opened in 1829, its original name was The Cheshire County Lunatic Asylum. / Through out the years the asylum changed its name and in 1953 it was renamed Deva until 1984 when it was once again renamed to The Countess Of Chester a name which it still goes by today. / Originally the asylum was meant to house upto 500 patients but over the years it expanded as did new wings and annexes until it could finally house over 1500 patients. 5 exp hdr merged in Photomatix.
