Newsham Park Hospital, Grade II listed hospital building in Liverpool, England

The Victorian brick building features high ceilings, large windows, and multiple wings connected through long corridors spanning three floors.

The structure, designed by architect Alfred Waterhouse, opened in 1874 as the Liverpool Seamen's Orphan Institution to support children of deceased mariners.

The building transformed from an orphanage to a mental health facility in 1954, reflecting changes in British social care through the 20th century.

The hospital facilities included separate wings for male and female patients, administrative offices, treatment rooms, and living quarters for medical staff.

The building's conversion from orphanage to psychiatric hospital left marks of both institutions, with school classrooms next to medical treatment areas.
