Hi, new here but had a love for exploring for a good few years now. Hope this first report is ok.
Have tried to include everything I can think of and not too pic heavy I hope.
Thanks
A little about the hospital
In 1922 several buildings and an area of land were used to create East Fortune Hospital. This served as a tuberculosis sanatorium for the south east region of Scotland until the onset of World War II. The hospital patients were transferred to Bangour Hospital in West Lothian. The hospital re-opened after the war, but by 1956, as the number of tuberculosis patients began to fall, the hospital changed its function to house the mentally handicapped. In 1997, the hospital closed down, and its patients were transferred To another facility.
