Derelict Hospital

They used to use parts of Clayton, Pinderfields, & Stanley Royd at Wakefield too.Wakefield Westgate railway station doubled as 'Denton Station' a few times too (& posibly Wakefield Kirkgate may have featured too, if they could a good angle to avoid all the rubbish bits of it)The 'Royd' was used prior to its demolition/re-vamp as houses/flats, so featured in the earlier series.I know that David Jason has been in the department as a patient, but tends to get treated by the Consultants on duty.

It's Cookridge. Thanks to everyone for their suggestions

One more- might have been the old Royal Baths Hospital in Harrogate.

I am sure they used the main entrance of the offices of that electronics company on Armley rd for some of the police station shots in earlier episodes.Begins with F if my memory serves and has another building on the other side of the railway.

Me again. I think St George's hospital at Rothwell is still standing. What about the old Maternity Hospital up near the University? Right spooky that was. Used to run up past there and definitely quickened the pace going past it.

Farnels. You'll find more about Frost and many more here which includes references to Farnell's site:http://www.secretleeds.co.uk/forum/Mess ... readID=148

Yep the police station was filmed in the Farnell offices on Armley Road. They stopped using it when some of the offices were demolished to make way for an extended car park at the Canal road site and the offices needed to be used again.I work at Farnell and one of the guys that I work with told me about the time he went over there and sat in Jack Frost's chair.

It is definately Cookridge as it said so on the Frost tribute programme "Touched by Frost" it was filmed there and also I recognise it as my mother in law was a patient there lots of times.
