The old Ronkswood hospital was completely flattened (apart from the tower) and the site sold in May 2002. The demolition literally caused quite a stir due to the large asbestos content. Now known as High Point Business Park, the site is still for sale or let over five years later. Perhaps 'low point' would have been a more appropriate name for this blot on the Worcester landscape.
