Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Panorama of Mapperley Hospital This was opened in 1880 as the Nottingham Borough Asylum, and "You'll end up in Mapperley" was common local usage when anyone acted strangely. It closed as a mental hospital in 1994, although a large part is still used by the NHS.
The buildings are strung out along a ridge and can be seen to advantage from this location. The main left hand wing was the female wing, with the superintendents dwelling next to it. This part is now Duncan Macmillan House, which includes a psychiatric unit and training facilities. Further right is the chapel, and the main right hand wing was the male wing. This has now been converted into apartments, together with the new buildings at the right hand side of the picture. The buildings were designed by G. T. Hine, son of the architect of the nearby Coppice Hospital. Hine's work at Mapperley launcehed him as consultant architect to H.M. Commissioners for Lunacy. (source: Pevsner, Nottinghamshire) |
