A skyline view of Lancaster Moor Hospital. Designed by architect Arnold Kershaw, Lancaster Moor was built in 1882 as an annexe to accommodate mental health patients. It was later used by the NHS before closing in 1999. A Grade II listed former hospital in Lancaster is to be converted into homes in a deal worth nearly £68m. The Lancaster Moor Hospital building on Quernmore Road will be restored and 440 homes will be built in the surrounding woodlands.
