The old St. Augustine's Hospital site has been redeveloped on this side of the barrier, with a great many houses, but not on the far side of the barrier. The mental hospital had a very spread-out site, and several ranges of buildings remain in a derelict state beyond the barrier. Other than the 'Stop', the only legible sign says 'Private property'.
