Ferdowse Clinic, Linconshire. April 04, 2012

[Lisajane79]

My partner was working in Lincoln and so we took the opportunity to visit here whilst in the area. We were pleasantly surprised and had a great time wandering the old house.

Originally the building was a Manor house built in the 18th century. In the late 1980s became a private practice for the treatment of alcoholism. The clinic had treated up to 2000 people but in 2003 the government cut funding for alcoholism and so it was forced to close.

Now being sold as manor house it is described as having 8 bedrooms to the first floor reached by a grande stair case and 6 bedrooms to the second floor.
I would love to give you more history but I can not find any. I was really looking forward to reading it myself!
