Residential blocks
Recently constructed residential apartment blocks have been designed to blend in sympathetically with the older building (seen in the background). This development is on the site of the former West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum, which later became Stanley Royd hospital and is adjacent to Pinderfields Hospital.

Old and new, Pinderfields Hospital
Most of Wakefield's famous Pinderfields Hospital has been demolished and rebuilt in the last few years. Here one old part continues, alongside newer neighbours. The road leads to a car park on the map but in reality now ends at a fence. The photograph was taken from a footpath. Anyone know what double red lines mean?
Behind the photographer is the space actually known as Pinder Field. The ancient word 'pinder' means a person authorised to impound animals, presumably those found straying. Maybe it should have been the prison that was built on this site!

Early morning sun, Parklands, Wakefield
A recent decision to mow only parallel strips on this slope has increased local people's enjoyment of it. Formerly this was part of the grounds of the West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum.
