A story surfaced the other day about plans to build an extension of a Lancashire mental hospital on a site where a discgraced mental hospital once stood. Whittingham mental hospital, at Guild Park, was closed in the early 90's after accusations of cruelty, mistreatment and fraud. This has led to an public enquiry, the results of which are expected by the end of this month.
So as this vast site at Guild Park is now unused, there are many ideas for what to build there, one of which being 65o new houses proposed by constuction company Taylor Wimpey.
So what would Preston actually benefit most from? A mental health hospital or more houses? I asked some locals to try and find out.
