The Countess of Chester Hospital opened in May 1984 and was built on a site previously occupied by the Cheshire County Lunatic Asylum. A distinctive feature of the original hospital was the historic brick water tower which is all that remains of the 1829 buildings on the site. Two years ago, planning permission was granted for a residential development with up to 90 new homes, the scheme is designed around the tower.
