Finally done it! - I popped my asylum cherry at last
I have looked in here on several occasions when passing while working but never really got the bottle to get out of the car and go in. Today was different. I drove up, waited a few minutes and thought what the heck! grabbed my camera and went for it.
This place has changed significantly inthe times I've parked up for lunch or a recce so thought its now or never. Went in on my own for an hour or so - was a bit nervous to start with but soon settled. I didn't snoop around much upstairs as access was difficult and in places it was obvious the damp was having bad effects on the stability of some of the floors - didn't much fancy falling that far with no backup around so please be warned if you go in there the floors do not look that good upstairs.
I wont go into the history of the place cos I'm sure you all know more than I do about it so on with the piccys
the main building
the entrance
the main hall
chair without a view
not sure what room this was
these were fun to climb!
some of the recent demolition
who's next at the bar please?
stairs n peely paint
a casualty?
one of the wards?
Thanks for looking
Jules
