Long Grove Hospital

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Long Grove Hospital used to be a mental asylum in Epsom, Surrey in the United Kingdom.

It was designed by George Thomas Hine. Patients include Josef Hassid (a Polish violin prodigy), Ronnie Kray (one of the Kray twins) and George Pelham (a man who survived the sinking of two ships, including the RMS Titanic).

The hospital closed in 1992 and has since been converted into Clarendon Park, a luxury apartments development. Much of its surrounding grounds now form part of Horton Country Park.
