This was a brilliant explore, 5 guys from down south came up and I had a great day playing :)
Saying nothing about this location except its huge !! 6 hours and there was still more
On with the pics
Ok, this is when we found approx 500-1000 medical cards in a...
I've been wanting to visit this place for a while, so we decided to stop by and have a look around, it does look worse than I thought it would be, it's absolutely trashed now. Lots of work has been going on and everything has been stripped bare. From what I was told, one of the rooms that has...
Been on about doing this place for a while. Judderman and ZerO81 fancied a quick trip to Sandwell, so I thought I'd bob in here first for a wander before meeting the guys.
Not a massive amount of history, St Gerards was the result of Father Hudsons vision for a purpose built infirmary for both...
St John’s Hospital.
Despite all the horror story's i had heard before embarking on this adventure i found it to have a very calming atmosphere while exploring this beautiful building. Dont get me wrong i found some parts of the building a little disconcerting such as the children s ward...
OK so we are going almost right back to the very beginning of my explores here, my first ever explore was Hellingly in June 2009, woefully underprepared for the experience but the bug bit me immediately. I can remember the feeling of climbing through a window and standing in an abandoned place...
Salve Mater Psychiatrisch Ziekenhuis.
The former Belgian psychiatric hospital for female patients.
Opened in 1927 by the ‘Sisters of Mercy’ and partially abandoned in 1997.
I visited this place twice on my visits to Belgium during the summer of last year. The first visit was very...
After the legendary morning that was Santastock 2012 a few of us decided to have a look at this place (minus the Christmas outfits).
I had previously visited in August but only took pictures of the outside of the buildings.
Absolutely stunning Victorian building with plenty to see. I spent...
Hospital Diablo 04/2013
An early morning start to head out here along some very tight and bendy hill top roads .
As we arrived it started to snow which was nearly our downfall. On the way out we found our exit road closed
But a quick tap to recalculate on the tom tom and we were of to...
I visited this place last year when I was trying to see as many asylums as possible before they were knocked down or converted.
I must have got to this one just in time, as last time I visited there were people living in it.
It was nice to see the building being put to good use and the...
Cookridge Hospital specialised in the treatment of cancer but these facilities have been
transferred to the new St James's Oncology Unit (Bexley Wing) of Leeds Teaching Hospitals
NHS Trust.[11] The main building and the lodge, designed by Norman Shaw in 1868, are
Grade II listed building, as...
I'm generally quite a wussy explorer and part live sites aren't usually my thing ...well it's on mi doorstep be rude not to.
History Nabbed off another report on another site:
Presently known as Cherry Tree Hospital, dating back to its foundation year of 1880, the site was also titled...
Opened in 1867 as Moulsford Asylum, also known as Berkshire Lunatic Asylum, Berkshire Mental Hospital and then Fairmile Hospital until closure in 2003.
I visited solo on a rainy Sunday morning back in September 2010, it was a real tricky place to get around, well guarded with active cctv dotted...
Despite a near fatal case of manflu I took my new lens to check out Coleshill, yet another boys school closed down due to the amorous advances of teachers and priests, (particularly Father H if wall grafitti is anything to go by...)
Going with MrToby and his friend who may or not be on the...
Hellingly Hospital or the East Sussex county asylum was designed by architect George Thomas Hine who is known for asylums up and down the United Kingdom (St. Mary’s, Rauceby etc.) and was completed in 1903.
As with many asylums, the site was largely self sufficient and even had its own farm...
First did this location couple of years ago its a real nice spot as we were in the area it would have been rude not to revisit .....

Cheers for looking Oldskool...
And so we return to one of my very first locations, nearly 4 years after my first visit.
Various plans had been hatched in the last couple of years to find a way to see this again, as very soon after my first visit the old - and only - access was comprehensively sealed. But news of the coming...
HH3 was a medium sized general hospital in Belgium that was built around a Chateau or some kind of grand old building in the 1950's. We met some local explorers outside who had been in earlier and exclaimed how it was 'creepy' as they had heard footsteps inside but not seen anyone......strangely...
Was out having a mooch around a few places with Scatterfun and the Baron, Mr Scatterbum had to go to work so Sir Baron and I went off in search of adevnture and stumbled across this partially disused hospital.
This wing of the hospital has not been in use for a few years but still has the power...
Evening all,
This place was done on the way back from a 4 day lads photography break in the Lake District. Took a bit of working out how to get there but managed it in the end. It was very early on iin my HDR journey but reasonably pleased with the results. The history is out there for all to...
