North Wales Hospital, Denbigh - August 2010

It’s been done many times so rather than bore you with facts copy/pasted from wikipedia – on with the shots!
It was a glorious sunny morning, and I was picked up by hiddenshadow and shadowplay. We spent a few hours covering as much as we could without getting lost and finding ourselves back in the same spot too often.


Main building and entrance.


Old partitions.


Collapsed corridor.




Circular skylights.











Isn’t it just?






Kitchens.


Main distribution board.


Phone booth.






The slab base! The smashed porcelain had been chucked through the window.


Body store – Where we should house the scum that smashed the slab!


The Chapel.

Great photos, you have really captured it's atmosphere
I really want to go there next, just not looking forward to
the 360 mile round trip

You have taken many shots identical to ones I did!Dont feel we will get bored with adding history,even a brief outline about the site ok..and Liz,we made the trip from Swindon that felt like we travelled for 8 hours just to see Denbigh,but I can assure you its worth it.Get in there,but watch out for the bearded numpty.

Denbigh, what a beatuful admin block.

Fearless: Just a note that it's normally a bad idea to quote the ENTIRE message WITH images for a one line reply.

I quote myself - 'All those long endless corridors,what endless nightmares must have paced those cold stone floors?'.
'The slab base! The smashed porcelain had been chucked through the window.'
...! what happened upon that table?
The curtains! they steal the show; they say everything an yet hide your eyes from everything.
Most superlative photography,haunted forever.

I love the look on this place, wanted to go for ages but never got round to it. Def a trip I will be doing soon
