Not tooo ago long we saw and heard of a something epic, not new by any means but report wise pretty thin on the ground, we'll stick the name Holby City Hospital on this cos of the connections of.

We made pretty quick plans for this mammoth journey and assembled a trusted crew this one would require good team players and a more seasoned approach, getting in here is not without some considerations :)

Powered by the acely named power drink Pussy. Team Pussy was assembled in the form as always Sshhhh.... and also LuckyPants, PerjurySaint and our would be tour guide and power to levitate us for other missions Projectmayhem and myself , despite repeated efforts PeterC4 couldn't be coaxed onboard altho to be fair he has been busy of late and everyone needs times out. :)

I wonder if one day we could make a Top Trumps of Urbex , it could be indicative of many things for instance..

If any Dragons are viewing I need £100,000 for 100% of the business.

So moving on Ladies and Gentleman we've travelled 100's of miles and for hours, its dark and we need plenty stealth, let's check into Holby City Hospital hope you have a compass this place is the Pyestock of hospitals and makes all others we have explored postage stamp size.

Paperwork checked let's splore

Like no other hospital adventure thus far, could one be prepared for the sheer amount of artefacts still in situ!

as well as some absolute serious stair pornage, from the functional wheelchair impractical...

9093335759_233c3c87e4_c.jpg


...to the insanely designed , beautiful and wheelchair impossible.

Nearing the front regions we hear movements , voices and machinery , this instills an air of edgeyness rumours of previous adventurers being kept hours on end in cells before release cross our minds, it's probably not the best place to be acquisitioned, when one sees who foot the initial bill.

Dog prints inside the place whether recent or not begs the question where would one hide? , like in here , WOW not seen one of these before outside of some kind of awful world destroying virus sci-fi film, ACE. What if hadn't been cleaned properly? What if it all went wrong? , What if....arrrrrrrrrrggghhh s

Again another place of extreme contrast in terms of deco, architecture and age related add-ons, from the more expected modernesque...

9093337291_c56e1bcb48_c.jpg


...to the proper old school, built in a more ornate age

You might think looking at these, that it's all pristine, wheres the decay ? I hear you enquire , further contrasts in that department too , check these wall flowers.

This gives ample ammunition for flake rain...

When you wander the fab explores of Rossendale and Mansfield, both exceptional examples of hospital explores, then when you finally find the xray machine and remains of operating theatres you form a que to take shots, of one of the very few things left behind there, not soo here, in the end your like "oh look yet another MRI scanner" but don't get me wrong we f***ing loved it!

That was an old model but there be more a lot more.

Check this mother out , hospital explore dreams are made of this dontchafink?

Ok lets get silly...Sshhhh... complains of severe stomach ache so without further ado we fling her on the scanner , Dr Saint insanely weaves the light, let diagnosis begin...

9095561072_1f87bce078_c.jpg


I concur with my colleagues that she is suffering from acute appendicitis , Dr. Luckypants disagrees suggesting a lobotomy my be in order but I am the Professor!!! We must press on with our original course, how hard can it be? We head off to the nuclear science dept for some equipment, for this most delicate of procedures. I spy that silver thing, very handy for splaying, am sure it will come in handy.

The procedure was not without its problems , it seems we were all wrong, she just needed a poo, we let her come round, she was not happy...

9074267181_df8efca2e6_c.jpg


As some form of an appeasement, we took her to the cinema but its was a crap film and we left.

Hanging around in the gym was a hoot , we had some Tarzan times here

Some bar steward pulled the plug on the pool!!!

It was getting later now, much later, like over 11 hours later, it wasn't dark anymore and we all knew that it was gonna be a bit nerve wracking going out, so time for one more relax before the hi-jinks of extraction begins

Thanks for looking it was one of the best explores to date with a fantastic crew, big thanks to ProjectMayhem for showing us round and providing us with the ability to fly on the next mission ;)

This is a absolute belter of a site,the combination of your great shots,and report make this of the highest level,hats off to you all....top notch..
 
Great shots there although it is a shame to see such an obvious hint to it's location :(
 
I have been having a little nose about trying to find some info on the place, either I am really thick and can't see the obvious or it's not quite so obvious! (I am most probably thick!) :D

That makes 2 of us then, , but if you know where the place is already it does reveal a connection but that kind of defeats the point made :confused: ah well its out there anyhow all is good :)
 
Great report with some first class shots! If this is the place that I think it is, I used to work with a chap who had an uncle who worked there in the 60s or 70s. He claimed that during some building work a wall was knocked down and revealed a Cholera ward that had been bricked up in the 1800s after the last victim had been buried. I know that there were outbreaks of Cholera in the area in the 1850s and Typhoid in the 1890s but I haven't been able to confirm the story of the lost ward. It may be just a story but it's a good one imagine knocking down a wall and finding yourself in a hospital ward from 120 years ago!

Wow!! that would be something and could possibly be true, this place is pretty old like 16th century
 
Stunning shots here mate. I was going to give this a try a few weeks back, but ended up chilling and relaxing instead.

I think the biggest hint is the staircase!!! Maybe he shouldn't of posted that photo???!!!!
 
C'mon guys everyone knows where this is I done it 2.5 years ago.............but didn't see the old parts though and it seems to have deteriorated rather nicely.........whats with all the secrecy???
