Storthes Hall was a psychiatric hospital which closed in 1991. Most of the site was demolished but the main building is still standing, albeit derelict. The site is protected by mesh fencing topped with barbed wire. This photo was taken over the fence. Just to the left of the tower can be seen part of Emley Moor TV Mast in SE2212.
