From a Google searh -

"Occupying a central position in the park is a large building which was once the Tehidy Hospital. Sometimes known as Tehidy Sanatorium, it was originally the home of the Bassett family but was converted into an isolation hospital for patients with tuberculosis. It is now private property."

Hospital

"In the centre of the park, but now private property, is a large building which was once Tehidy Hospital (sometimes referred to as Tehidy Sanatorium). It was originally converted from the Bassets' home into an isolation hospital for patients with tuberculosis, but in later years also dealt with patients who had strokes, head injuries and various lung disorders. It closed in 1986, and has now been converted into luxury apartments. Several new luxury houses have now been built around the former hospital buildings. There is no public right of way through this section of the park."
