Shelton is well under conversion now. St David’s also not really derelict just a few outer wards empty, belongs in the converted list by the look of it..

St Georges was looking almost completed last time I went by, they have show apartments available for viewings, may go for a look.

Nice one, back on the trail! Cheers!

Just a little update on St Edwards, chapel seems to now be occupied although it does look a little worse for wear externally still. The morgue is still standing but inaccessible, a peak through a small gap in the door shows the interior to be quite nice looking with lots of glazed bricks, one day!

 

[Krypton]

The Chapel at Winterton Hospital in Sedgefield has been recently turned into a fancy looking Gym. It's the only part of it that remains.

Clifton in York hasn't been demolished - It's still a fully functional MSK unit. My friend works there!

Yes its still open with no plans for closure. http://www.theretreatyork.org.uk/ - sure you're not confusing it with Bootham Park?

 

[Ollyh2015]

On my Facebook page some urban explorer has been there and al the windows have sheets of metal over and it's closed he's been inside apparently. It's definitely not bootham I didn't know that place was still standing haven't they knocked it down and built a new building ?
