Great pictures, I love the the colours in all of them.

The butterfly on the window is especially nice. :)
 
Some (paint peeling of ceiling) really give me the creeps! Good set of photos there! thanks!!
 
Thats a good set of photos of the place you got there :) What I would say is cut back on the amount similar photos, also not sure about the contrast on the b&w ones.
 
Very nice, good to see the old girl. The roof in the main hall looks like its failing down in the edges now thou :(

The hospital was actually sold in October to a developer who hopes to try and keep the buildings but has stated its inevitable that some may not be able to save. The locals are suspicious to say the least.

Only time will tell I guess.
 
I like the ones with the paint and rollers most - it's like the decorators went in looked around, and decided the pub was a fair more straightforward option than renovating the place.

Shame the developers are taking the same approach. The cynic in me says its a deliberate ploy - the value in the land only really comes about when the building on it are fecked beyond repair.

It's pretty protected land though, the remit of what they can and cannot do is pretty limited.

SAVE are on the case too, it will be the main building focused on in their June 'at risk' catalogue
 
I love Talgarth :) Some really nice shots there too

I like the on of the room with the flaky ceiling!!!
 
Explored here last year and it's a brilliant explore all round! Nicely done. It's strange because from the outside the place feels quite 'humble' somehow, but once inside it changes completely.
 
I'd love to take a look around there

brilliant!

great pics - love the 2 chairs and tv one -and also the window frame and butterfly. Weird because I am a painter specialising in stuff thats falling to bits (see www.davidpoxon.co.uk) on my web there is a painting entitled 'catch' which is a similar subject - the butterfly. Its good to know there are 'others' out there!
Would love to have a go at the chairs and tv pic -but of course would need your permission!
cheers
david
