West Park Asylum

23 images Created 24 Jun 2010

The psychiatric hospital was designed by William C Clifford-Smith (architect to the London County Council), and was mostly completed by 1917, but opening of the hospital was postponed by WW1 until 1923.

By 2003 most of the hospital was closed and derelict, although parts of it are still used today for psychiatric treatment.
