Welcome to my report on the Plumstead hospital, Home of the peeling paint for Norfolk.....
I am sure you all know the history very very well on this location, but here is a little anyway.... Little Plumstead Hospital was originally Norfolk's principle mental deficiency colony. It was opened in 1930 and closed in 1990s. Since then it has mostly been flattened to make way for a mega housing development. Part of the site is still live and deals with sexual offenders and another part of the site is a primary school. What a combination eh... All that remains now is the main hall, 2 blocks for admin and workshops and 1 main admin block and a few smaller out buildings.
This is a amazing sight with some great little features, and it is very handy being on my doorstep too.... Visited here on a number of occasions, so thought it was about time I put a report up. I don't know why, but normally when I visit here I don't take many photos, so the last few times I made a point of getting some photos of the less seen bits and bobs.
Now for the photos
