Plans for Jimmy Savile's mortuary revealed as photos are shared from inside site

Harrowing pictures of the mortuary building associated with Jimmy Savile's disgusting allegations have been released.

The building, which is situated at High Royds Hospital, is supposedly the place where the late BBC presenter's alleged crimes against the deceased occurred.

Urban explorer Kyle Urbex captured the images in Leeds and it shows the facility in a state of disrepair.

In one photo, you can see a 'Do Not Disturb' message scored in the dust of mortuary cabinets.

Not only is paint peeling off the walls, the windows are boarded up, and the floor covered in debris, but it's bloody creepy.

Perhaps it's knowing what we know now about what possibly transpired within those walls that makes it a scary place to look at.

However, plans for the structure have been unveiled.

Apparently, development is set to begin soon, and Kyle wanted to give himself a personal tour before it could be destroyed.

The High Royds Hospital was a former mental health facility called the West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum in 1888 when it was first opened.

However, the clock is ticking for it to be torn down.

Kyle, who took a peek at what was inside, went on to share why he decided to venture in.

He said: “After seeing a recent report of a mortuary building still remaining on the site I just knew I had to go before it was too late.”

Kyle added: “The final if not the last chance to explore a part of the historic High Royds.

“Every man and his dog that does this hobby will instantly recognise the name of High Royds Hospital in Menston.”

As for what he saw, he shared that ‘the old freezer keeps its place where it has stood for many decades’, but the morgue was another story.

Kyle explained: “Sadly the morgue table has gone but the now ruins of the central post-mortem room makes it certainly photogenic for sure.”

Now, the building is destined to be turned into residential housing.

While it used to showcase an amazing library, surgery, butchers and bakery when it was open, it now sits abandoned and broken.

There was even a cobbler’s shop and work areas in its prime, which was perfect for the patients who lived in the wards.

Kyle explained: “They were expected to work towards their keep either in the kitchens or in the laundry rooms.”

The hospital also had its own railway system connected to the Wharfedale railway line until 1951.

He shared: “In the 1980's it was alleged that Jimmy Savile had inappropriately touched patients and staff from High Royds. The witness was declared a credible witness, and the allegations were accepted as true.

“It is said that Savile was quoted as saying ‘Is there a room I can go to if I pull one of the nurses’.”

But the hospital didn’t last long as it was said to have become outdated in terms of technology and was officially closed in 2003.

In June 2017 planning was submitted for it to be turned into homes, and everything around the mortuary has been transformed into lovely new build houses and an estate.

All that’s left to complete the scenic residential landscape is for the mortuary to go.
