Newsham Park Hospital opened its doors in 1954. The hospital developed its own psychiatric department and received an influx of patients with severe mental problems.
The hospital officially stopped taking new patients in 1988, and by 1992 all remaining patients and staff were relocated.
In 1992 with the closure of Rainhill Lunatic Asylum the inmates were moved to Newsham Park Hospital taking up 90% of its space. £1.6 million was spent on the hospital so it could house its new patients. There are still notices posted on boards in the School block and paperwork on the property that are dated 1996. All records of patients and staff have been closed for 100 years since 1997 when the building was finally vacated of patients and staff.
It is said that the spirits of many of these patients past & present still reside within the walls of this hauntingly beautiful building.
