Background

The facility was largely financed by Sir William Crossley, Bt, chairman of the board of management of the Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Throat and Chest, Manchester and opened as the Crossley Sanatorium in March 1905. 100 beds were provided. Admission was restricted to residents of Manchester. It joined the National Health Service as Crossley Hospital East in 1948 and served as a psychiatric hospital before closing in 1988. and then lay derelict until 2006 when the developer, PJ Livesey, started to redevelop the site for residential use as Kingsley Park.
