Having been recently disappointed to miss out on the Mortuary at CMH, I decided to head to the nearby St Peter's version.

Cool place although I was disappointed to see the famous organ chart had been removed and also the flowers on the altar as well. There where also various bits of (badly spelt and unimaginative) tagging around the place and the handwriting seemed to tally up with a couple of names I recognized from various forums that where also tagged on the wall....be keeping an eye out for you scummers - give us a bad name you do. Dont get me wrong, I love a good piece or even a tasteful throw up but this just made a mess of the place...if you get me.

Anyways, it was a fabulous little venue, yes been done before, yes absolutely f*cked but it was hugely atmospheric and photogenic as well - I love the green glow in the main slab room caused by mother nature shrouding the building and in turn its windows. A lot of bodies have come through here so it was a creepy one...just how I like it :)

The History: (shameless internetsteal)
St. Peters Hospital was initially built to house the casualties of the Second World War. The mortuary was built in the 1940s, but after much redevelopment it was decided that the site was too small to cope with the increase of bodies. So, in April 2009 the mortuary closed and moved to the new building which is now central to the main hospital.
