Enjoyed working there for many years in late 70's to the 90s, recognise some of the staff, patients and locations. Takes you back it does..

Used to go there from St Clares Scool Victoria Avenue, Coach Full of Children during 1959 to 1961 approx!

Church and state to blame.. we never knew when we were young what horrors were going on but I'm sure our parents did and grandparents as well, but the EVIL Catholic church ruled us all,, 2025 and people still give them money to live the life. SICK!! 🤮

Sad

Next to pinderfields hospital 34 pinderfield road hussins sinbads hussins shameful abusive acts

Work in Bradford you’ll see a great picture

Crimes against children are the worst and STILL the Catholic Church remains in power and these woman and children suffer terrible shame and depression. Punish these nuns and churches for the abuse against the most helpless woman and children. The world cannot continue to look the other way. Abuse destroys the future.

living longer and Retirement age was late 40s, long retirement unlike 2024...

see how old these Were, people were living longer back then . not the lies told to us ..

I remeber Stanley Royd patients getting on the bus with their stripped towelling dressing gowns on outside the hospital I bet many of the wakefield bus drivers remember this because it happened often. NOW the metally ill live on our streets what a disgrace at least in there they were bathed fed and warm.

Very good. Obviously Mark.❤

Hi I'm not sure if you see comments on here or not but hopefully you do, just wanted to let you know I love these photos it brings back many memories of exploring here in my youth... thank you 😊

I explored here probably similar time to you. Did you go in the basement? …with the broken stairwell? There’s something in there and it does not like guests.

My great grandmother sadly passed away in Rainhill Hospital December 1973, she suffered from dementia. Heartbreaking, absolutely heartbreaking.

Nesfield ward was the worst lock up ward their

4:12 -"watch his toes because that is usually the only sign we have that he has had an adequate dose." Piss off! Numerous individuals convulsed so severely they broke bones and one even broke his spine receiving this "treatment." It seems that "treatments" back then, such as lobotomies, insulin overdose and electroshock did nothing more then fuck the persons brain up so bad that they could no longer "act up," or speak, or feed themselves or read or write. Oh well, at least they were no longer anxious, depressed or horny. Fucking barbarians! Making the person near brain dead is not a cure for ANYTHING! These "treatments" only hide the previous symptoms while increasing the victims suffering!

The hypocrisy of the parents of lucy & Mabel, when they themselves weren't fit parents. The pain these women pushed down over their lives would have been immense. Stolen lives.

Fabulous, such a shame you don't do Elvis anymore x

Ou vous habitez pour code la route ?

My younger brother was a formor patient at the Kanner Unit. My mother did her nursing here as did a friend of mine

what it should say is welcome to slavery, abuse. and explortation of your women! SICK FUCKS! Im a woman and that is horrible! RIP victims!

Great video! My dad used to take me exploring here when he was alive.. Great memories! Thanks for the vid, brings it all back for me ❤😊

One of our relatives was in there but we were never told. He lived with his parents and other siblings in the Delph Lane area. It was in the basement. He was fine but he fell down the concrete steps when he was about eight and he hurt his head. He began to have Epileptic seizures and their doctor persuaded his parents to send him to the Meanwood Colony. He said that he’d never be able to go to work or have a normal life so they signed the paper. We didn’t know anything about it. My sister lived in the Parklands Estate and we could have gone to visit him. I don’t even know his first name but his surname would have been Todd. We did hear that he was good at drawing but that’s all we know about him.

Went swimming here with Briscoe Lane back int day... awww😊

The abusers got away with murder

The amount of times I come back to this video. This shows me just how far I have come since those days ❤

OF COURSE I HAVE BEEN STAFF

"The laundry building was among a number of buildings that were destroyed in that fire". How convenient

I knew of where a cupple of laundries we're in Dublin but not the significants of them. It makes me very sad and angry in equal measures. Same with Artane, Dangan, and all the other slave prisons because that's what they were. Even today we still haven't come to terms with our shameful past. We're all affected in some way we are one people. We are Part of a bigger family on the planet and look at us, war's genocide, forced migration, displacement. We're a disgrace to ourselves as as speice.✌🏽 ☘️😢

Once went I here to visit someone but thinking back I wonder how many actually had dementia and not technically insane

Many of these once beautiful old hospital buildings throughout the UK & abroad were left to rot away with no security against theft, fires & vandalism quite purposefully I'm sure. When finally in a state beyond repair security are all over the grounds with prosecution signs. Soon after we have a new estate of luxury flats built over for the well off to live in complete contrast to the former patients of the site. I can't help but wonder if some of the new occupants have had unexplained goings on in their 'brand new' accomodation.

Out of the ashes, New build properties were completed by Skipton Properties, we moved in November 21.

I lived on Eastmoor Road, and as a kid, all us local urchins used to find gaps in the green metal spiked fence and then play football on the grounds of the asylum. The Police used to chase us off but could never catch us as we could squeeze through the fence, but they were too fat to do so. We often invited the 'patients' to join our games . It was sad that they were given clothes and had haircuts that made them stand out as patients. If you walk down Eastmoor Road the origional metal spiked fence is still there. Another story is the church and its 'haunted' crypt that stood in the grounds just opposite Eastmoor post office . It burned down in mysterious circumstances . Rumour it was torched to make way for those flats that stand there now on the junction of Eastmoor Road and Stanley Road.

I never seen humans in this state. How is this today?

Thank you for your upload video 📹 Very sadly they are in the process right now of trying to demolish it, the new developers do not care that it holds a grade 2 status. By informing England Heritage we can put pressure on to save this remarkable historic building

Thank you,That first song is so emotional.I am living with autism and if that makes me a lunatic so be it.

😢

I think Tchaikovsky's music accompanied this much more sympathetically...... why did you change it? 😊

I worked in the hospital in 1978 , great hospital but some arrogant rubbish staff.

Incredible. Part of counselling studies 2023.

What a shame......😢

My poor grandma ended up here in around 1962, Annie Pointon was her name. She didn't last long im afraid to say.

Shocking, wakey jail without the bars. Innocent but convicted. Discussed me.

All these old asylums did shock treatments, insulin therapy, lobotomy and luekotomy. Not to mention drug experimentation on patients. It's too bad they let it decay, tagged with graffiti. Some of the old asylums were architectural masterpieces. Thank you for this.

My dad worked here, he still tells us stories of what it was like

So sad 😢how could you refuse a letter like that

Hi, is it possible to speak to you about using this for a news item about the 75th anniversary of the NHS? Thank you!

Re-visited 2023... at least the developers had the grace to retain the main building, clock tower and ballroom, and it does look beautiful, very well renovated. Shame about some of the ugly new houses though.

A nightmare world! However, ECT is still used today - with severe depression that hasn’t responded to any medication or therapy and the patient is at risk of death either suicide or has stopped eating and drinking. It does work, I have experienced severe depression I did not have ECT but two of my friends who I met in hospital had it and swear by it - it completely stopped there sever depression. It does have some memory loss but to them it’s worth it as the alternative was living in a hellish zombie state. It was used too much in the past on things other than severe depression which it doesn’t work for. But severe depression with no hope it can be a life saved. The psychiatric in this is William Sargant who was evil - search for the BBC documentary called revealed the mind bender general’ to see hiw crazed he was

I was in for am eating disorder, i had a eary feeling when there and still today when i look at it
