Hospital Closure

The future of the hospital is for it to close. Already the majority of the site is derelict. The council has plans to redevelop the site into housing but this has faced opposition from local residents who believe that it will have a too big an impact on the local roads that may not be able to cope with the influx of traffic. . The majority of the hospital site is now derelict with only a small modern purpose built building remaining for current hospital use. Some of the previous hospital buildings have already been demolished
