  • In this explore, we visit The North Wales Hospital. It is a Grade II listed building in Denbigh, Denbighshire, Wales. Designed by architect Thomas Fulljames, building started in 1844 and completed in 1848. Initially a hospital for up to 200 people with psychiatric illness, by the mid-20th century it housed 1,500 patients. [Wikipedia]
    Location: Denbigh, Denbighshire, Wales
    Founded: 1844
    Closed: 1995
    Although we were caught by security, the chap was alright and showed us some parts of the hospital, along with the history while he escorted us off the premises.

    This is an oldish video (footage and editing) if you were wondering 💭

      Definitely was a shame although most of it is an empty shell so don’t think we missed much. And yeah the guy was a good sport. Great day, we’ll have to arrange something again soon for the summer 😁

    Think about it, I mean it looks dangerous just taking one step inside, you would never know what could fall so I think that security guard didn’t want nothing happen to any of you so it ok that you couldn’t venture inside. I like the video 🙂

    • @ExploringWithin
      @ExploringWithin  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Definitely, it did look very dangerous inside and looked like there wasn't much left of it. Security guard was very good, probably the best I've encountered so far. Thanks for watching! Also I see you became a member of the channel, many thanks and welcome :)

    To use a quote from Terminator they'll be back. I'd say that place was as close as you get to Hell on Earth in its hay day. I'm a skeptic when it comes to ghosts, but I wouldn't like that guards job at night.

    What a amazing place it looks like a castle its a shame that the security guard did not let you just peak in some of the buildings and I have always wondered why they protect places that have falled to decay Iguess so no one destroys it further or they might be planning on fixing it up have a good week steve
