A derelict former hospital is set to be transformed into a GP practice and mental health centre, at a cost of almost £4m. A full planning application has been submitted to Trafford council for the former Stretford Memorial Hospital in Old Trafford, previously owned by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.
The proposals, from entrepreneur and investor Mark Schofield, are set to transform the Stretford Memorial Hospital on Seymour Grove site, which closed in 2015 and has sat empty ever since.
The building has been targeted by vandals, arsonists and squatters and has cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of pounds in private security fees over the last seven years.
