GOODMAYES HOSPITAL PRE APPLICATION STATEMENT INGLETON WOOD OCTOBER 2015 The original Asylum plan at the heart of the site was designed on a ‘Compact Arrow’ layout with the main façade aligned to the south, a revolutionary design in the construction of asylums throughout the UK at the time and a development form appreciably visible today.

The built environment of the site can be largely divided into three main categories. First, the main ward Edwardian echelon buildings which provide the most visually cohesive category. These structures include the original flanking ward blocks, central entrance & administration building, as well as the main hall and chapel within the centre of the site. The additional granular 1930s-70s brick extensions provide a secondary category. The service buildings and single storey informal courtyards to the north and centre of the site including the laundry and boiler room blocks, form the third category.

The majority of the service and workshop buildings were constructed in a series of informal courtyards to the north, enveloped by the outlying arms of the hospital complex, creating a hierarchy to the site and contrasting to the grander public entrance to the south. The layout also incorporated a number of open spaces between each ward block, cutting into towards the centre of the site. This feature gave the asylum a light and airy feel, considered important to the early 20th century mental health regime.

The Edwardian echelon ward buildings appear as elegant red brick structures featuring a few simple decorative details and consistent use of materials, comprising of red brick and banded Portland stone, save minor alterations taking in a series of small additions to the ward buildings during the 1930s and post war period.

Advances in medical treatments in the post war period saw the need for in-patient care diminish and the way in which the facility was used alter dramatically. Outlying in-patient wards and redundant staff accommodation were demolished and a number of contemporary additions added to the site, including;

• Brookside Young People’s Unit (mid-1970’s ) • King George Hospital relocation (late 1990’s) • Meadow Court nursing home (2001) • Sunflowers Court Mental Health Facility, (2011)

Whilst any proposed the remainder of the urban block given over to communal parking alterations will be subject to agreement with the conservation officer, or garden areas. due to the locally listed status of the buildings, initial proposals Demolition highlight the potential for conversion to residential development. The conversion seeks to balance the retention of historic form with the creation of viable residential addresses. The retained generally Existing Retained In physically reconfiguring the retained buildings we propose where buildings lend themselves to conversion and with the exception possible to work with the existing structure to create new family of the “main entrance” Block E, the other blocks have relatively few Proposed Layout homes.

The design of the external amenity spaces that support the residential conversion is key to protecting the quality of the setting and it is envisaged that the specification of boundaries and enclosures will be tightly controlled to offer a unified and appropriate response, particularly along the elevations fronting the parkland. It is likely that the perimeter spaces will be given over to private garden areas whereas the courtyard elevations are generally likely to have Typical Prpoosed Demolition Plan (Block B)
