The lodge at what appears to be a back entrance to the campus is boarded up with broken upper floor windows. This BBC news item from February 2015 is relevant: "The chief executive of the UK's national hospital for spinal surgery has warned it is on the brink of closure. Rob Hurd says it is being forced to treat patients at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore, north-west London, in buildings which are 'dying'".
