Between 1855 and 1906, the chapel was built and laundry extended.\u00a0In 1906 a 2-storey infirmary was built at the rear of the Workhouse (north east) to house the sick\u00a0inmates and members of the public, and in 1924 it was joined to the workhouse. The isolation\u00a0hospital was built in 1910 on the East side of the site. This was known as the St. Asaph\u00a0Infectious Diseases Hospital where diphtheria and scarlet fever patients were nursed (1937-49).\u00a0In 1948 it became an NHS hospital \u00a0and remained so until its closure in 2012,\u00a0the Infirmary beds were developed and\u00a0utilised for Medical, Surgical, Gynaecological, Obstetrics, Ophthalmic, Dental and Ear Nose and\u00a0Throat (ENT) treatment. The building gradually developed into a Hospital, and was given the\u00a0name H. M. Stanley Hospital in 1959, in memory of Henry Morton Stanley.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Visit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Visted with Pete Costello, Lowri, Shush and then later joined by Mars Lander, Sssshhhh, Lucky Pants and Easy Tigger we wondered around this derelict hospital for a few hours. I cant say it was one which will stand out for me. Inspiration was limiting photographically here but it did have some redeeming features with the chapel, murals and remaining wheel chair. Enjoy the photos.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4009\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4009\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4009\" alt=\"HM Stanley Hospital\" src=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-2-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"630\" height=\"419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-2.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4009\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HM Stanley Hospital<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4008\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4008\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4008\" alt=\"HM Stanley Hospital\" src=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"630\" height=\"419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4008\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HM Stanley Hospital<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4013\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-6.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-3\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4013\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4013\" alt=\"HM Stanley Hospital\" src=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-6-682x1024.jpg\" width=\"630\" height=\"945\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-6-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-6-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-6.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4013\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HM Stanley Hospital<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4012\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-5.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-4\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4012\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4012\" alt=\"HM Stanley Hospital\" src=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-5-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"630\" height=\"419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-5-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-5.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4012\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">HM Stanley Hospital<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4011\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.proj3ctm4yh3m.com\/urbex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/HMStanley-4.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-5\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4011\" class=\"size-large wp-image-4011\" alt=\"HM Stanley Hospital -
