St Peters Mortuary - Feb 2014

Hey all,

New member with this being my first post. I know this location has been posted about a few times so I won't go into all the background details.

Went on a cold sunday with a couple friends, didn't see anybody around so we could take our time to explore this (its only small). This is just a few of the pictures I got while we were there, not the greatest of photos but it was my first visit to anything like this so hoping to improve slowly..






















Cheers, Alex

nice job!, good to see this place again. thanks for sharing

never have i done an explore where i felt the need to have piping hot shower after, like with this place.

Nice first explore mate! Im jealous as i want to see this place!

Awesome first report!
Fantastic pics, cheers for sharing!

Great first report well done you nice pics.

A great place to begin lots of adventures hopefully

Cheers for the comments, I'll try get more stuff up whenever its possible.

Cool location for a first report, nicely done. Good to see it's back open again.

Well done pal..

Ah, what an interesting place. I've been in some mortuaries during my service career - when they are working, they are far less daunting places than one may imagine. I liked the shot of the board for organ weights. And three tables? I would imagine this was a busy place in its time.

Great post,Thanks.

from what I've heard the reason they abandoned it is because they built a new bigger one, due to this one being too small. so the new one must be pretty crazy haha

Very nice. thinking off adding to my wish list to visit.

Built a bigger one.

As I said, I have had to visit mortuaries during my service career, and some of them were quite large. Always purposeful and well-run. I suppose centralization works as an efficiency somewhere along the line, although I dont think the dead care that much. I've seen mortuaries were the staff all knew each other so well there was never a wasted movement and the work proceeded at a very rapid pace. (Children aside - there was never any rush with children as I recall). Still - this is a great report, and thank you for doing it so well.
