Thankyou so so much, Julie for this little short archived film of The Royal Victoria Hospital, Netley. This hospital is totally, stunningly awesome. I don't have any connection/ family connection with it but I do have a deep passion for old hospitals!!! It maybe because I have worked in hospitals for 50 yrs and still going!!! This beautiful incredible hospital should have been given LISTED STATUS . The awesome architecture is magnificent:-) I plan to visit the beautiful Chapel (which I understand has had a lot of remedial work done to bring this up to its former glory) with my family this Summer:-) Thankyou so much for the video. 2hrs or longer of this video wouldn't have been too long!! I wish you well:-)
If you are walking in the park, you can make out the outlines of the former hospital's groundplan in the turf, delineated by the density of daisies. I would love to see if a camera drone could capture this. My view from head height was of strips of daisies in rectilinear patterns over a huge area, corresponding to the outline of this vast former hospital.

Superb...a rare gem.
Hi Julie, would I be able to use this footage for a project I'm working on about the hospital? You'll be credited of course!
Thank you for uploading this, absolutely fantastic! Where did you get the footage?
It’s a treasure
