Additional Information
Exe Vale Hospital in Devon is an
important complex of Grade II* listed buildings dating from the 1840s.
Following its sale by the NHS, the surrounding land was developed for
housing while the historic hospital remained empty. In 1998 English
Heritage were authorized by the Secretary of State to serve an urgent
works notice on the developers who had purchased the hospital. The
buildings are currently being converted to residential use.
