Stafford county asylum (st george's)

Visited with scary mary² on a very humid day indeed not one of your treasure troves but well worth a look imo. It has a great anti suicide staircase cage wich is all still in place and nice corridors. And if your into parkour you'll like the main hall.
Founded in 1818 on Corporation Street, Stafford, this welcoming complex of now derelict buildings was later blessed with the more comforting name of "St George's Hospital".
This was our second attempt at this place as the first time was a farce with dead cars and scrounging phone calls for train money to get home etc so i was well pleased to get in

Some pics.























Thanks for looking

Getting inside the building is the first step towards the roof
