Expressed in numerical terms, this would represent a redundancy of no fewer than 75,000 hospital beds. However, while its interior is far from what it was 168 years ago – it’s rumoured that the apparitions of past patients, staff and visitors still remain to this day.

Denbigh Asylum was built between 1846 and 1848. It was a product of an age when fear and stigma guided “care” of the mentally ill. At the time, isolation in an asylum was the treatment for conditions like postnatal depression, alcoholism, senile dementia, and even infidelity.
