Description
The former Babington Hospital is a significant landmark building located on Derby Road in Belper town centre. Dating back to 1838 this substantial building extends to approx. 70,000 Sq Ft providing huge scope for development / conversion for a multitude of different uses, subject to planning permission. Current planning use is C2 Hospital / Medical, however it is worth noting that pre-application discussions were positive towards the conversion to form over 70 residential units.

A number of the buildings comprising the Lot are Grade II Listed. Historic England shows the following listings:
- North Lodge at Babington Hospital
- Eastern boundary railed walls and piers at Babington Hospital
- Main Entrance lodge to eastern courtyard at Babington Hospital
- North range of eastern courtyard at Babington Hospital
- South range of eastern courtyard at Babington Hospital
- Western range of eastern courtyard at Babington Hospital
Please note that a number of buildings, which are not specifically mentioned in the listing could be covered by the curtilage of the listing.
