Crossley Hospital East
Crossley Hospital East (founded 1905 as Crossley Sanatorium) is a former tuberculosis sanatorium situated on the outer edge of Delamere Forest in Cheshire near Northwich, within the township of Kingswood.
==History==
Crossley Sanatorium opened in 1905 and operated as a sanatorium until the 1960s, when it became a care home for the elderly. It was built at the expense of Sir William Crossley, Bart., chairman of the board of management of the Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Throat and Chest, Manchester, and then donated to it. 100 beds were provided.〔Brockbank, E. M. (1927) "The hospitals of Manchester and Salford", in: ''The Book of Manchester and Salford''. Manchester: George Falkner & Sons; pp. 114-155 (pp. 130-131)〕 During the later stages of its life, Crossley Hospital East was also used as a psychiatric hospital, and then spent the last years of its life as a boarding school. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.
Since 1993 Crossley Hospital East has been completely abandoned and lies derelict to the north of Delamere Forest. The decline of the building was first documented by Ian Cooper, a photographer and video producer.〔(Ian Cooper )〕 He also produced the first ever photography exhibition based around a derelict building in the UK after 3 years researching the hospital, entitled; "No Longer Used; The Decay of Crossley Hospital East", which received coverage from the UK national press. The former hospital has been recently converted into residential apartments and some of the original buildings have been demolished. The former mortuary is now called ''Willow House''.
