Grassington Hospital Grounds

Grassington Hospital Grounds is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) within Yorkshire Dales National Park in North Yorkshire, England. It is located 1.2km east of the town of Grassington. Grassington Hospital was built in 1919 and closed in 1984. In 1996 some of the hospital buildings were converted to residential buildings. This protected area includes hay meadows within the old hospital site that are some of the best examples of herb-rich neutral grassland within Yorkshire Dales National Park. The Upper Wharfdale Field Society visited this protected area in 2025, logging the presence of a diverse range of plants.
