Rainhill Hospital

Rainhill, United Kingdom · built 1851

Rainhill Hospital was a very large psychiatric hospital complex that was located in Rainhill, Merseyside, England. Founded in 1851 as the then Third Lancashire County Lunatic Asylum, the hospital was repeatedly expanded until the 1980's when a mixture of administrative changes and changes in policy saw patient services transfer to newer facilities and care in the community. Closed in 1992 and subsequently demolished, the site was redeveloped into a retirement village.
