GraylingWell Metal Asylum West Sussex
Date: September
Location: Chichester West Sussex
Public or Abandoned: Abandoned
Demolished: Yes
The hospital's construction was completed in 1894, but due to World War I, it was repurposed as a military hospital. Only some portions were utilized during World War II. By 1919, the hospital returned to civil use and was referred to as Graylingwell Mental Hospital. However, the term "asylum" was no longer commonly used by 1920.
In 2001, the hospital was abandoned and subsequently demolished. The site has since been transformed into a residential area, with half of it converted into a house and the other half remaining abandoned. While exploring the site, I was able to easily navigate through the abandoned portion and observe some of the remaining remnants. Unfortunately, most of the buildings were sealed off, so access was not possible at the time.
AS FROM 2020 SITE BEEN DEMOLISHED
