Nice shots all round! The reason the bed is in the library is because me and some other explorers put it there a while back:) It was in bits under the stairs down the hall so we put it in some nice light as you do.
 
Nicely done - I must make a return visit at some point...

And on a side note, where these two cells?

One on the right an old padded cell - saw at Hellingly a few cells with the half sized windows...?

Thanks S8 :)

This was taken on the Eastern / Female Side. The Hospital Wards were designed and built differently, depending upon the Patient's illness and the severity. The windows in some Wards vary in width / height. It could be easy to miss these high level windows, as there are only about a couple on the Male & the same on the Female. If some of these Seclusion Rooms were padded, it's likely that these rooms with the small window at high level were padded. Whilst on the subject of windows, did you know that some of the removed window shutters are down in the Works Dept -fashioned into a rather practical shelving unit?

Thanks Magoo :)

Ah ha -mystery solved then! :lol:

Only comment would be that technically, it was put in the wrong place. The room was never a Ward. Perhaps you could pop back and place it into a Ward next time you're passing? :p;)

That's what me a Winch thought, as there were a few wards at Hellingly where the end cell had a half size window...interesting :)

I didn't know about the removed shutters though - good reuse though lol
 
Thanks for your comments :)

S8 -apart from the old Padded Cell over in Park House Acute Unit, missed those ones in Hellingly.

Disco Biscuit -visited the Mortuary on previous visits -been divided into two at some stage, and the slab removed, but still got the Body Fridges and glazed brickwork! :)

Escort Mad -yup, reply to PM coming very soon ;)

It is all guess work from my end, but they are farily obvious in a few wards...
 
looks like an amazing place to visit, with so much to explore, may have to go there if not being demolished anytime soon.
