Was there also a hospital on the hillside at the back of the electric works as well?

you could be right there Richard, it may have been a smallpox hospital

Yeah there definitely was 😊👍

There was definitely a hospital up there. Made of red bricks. Used to (wrongly) go bird nesting up there as a teenager. Originally, I was told it was an old war hospital but I think the poster of the video is correct regarding the smallpox hospital.

The electrice works where you mention the bricks in the wall was where the water went for the boilers and at the side of that is where the dam gates where , when there was to much water coming down the river the dam could be opened.
