Popped over to Denbigh, picking up Dystopia along the way. To cut a very long story short, we got in eventually at about 2am. Below is a quick selection. Will add more pics when I get the chance. Enjoy! :)

Big big thanks to Fieldy for access point tips :)

Lb:cool:
 
Correct me if im wrong but im sure this hospital was sold in 1998 for 80,000 i remember it being a scandal within the NHS estates,it was re sold by the new owner in 2003 for 300,000 at auction. still seams cheap for all that land.
 
Great pics, Lb. Although I'm not an Asylum fan per se, I've always liked Denbigh; as KA said, it's a lovely building.
Love that fireplace (or is it a niche for ornaments? Difficult to tell). Like the decoration of lion's head and rampant twiddly-bits. :D

Ta for that. Nice one.
Foxy :)

Very good.

Points for finding wheelchairs & a projector. I made a list of thing most likely to be found in a closed down mental hospital.

I'm surprised those cylinders were left behind, I wouldn't like to be around if there was a fire in that area.
 
A good set of pictures which really sum the place up. I particularly like the mix of the exterior, interior and close-up shots: you get a feel of the buildings themselves, their condition and the objects still lurking within.

All the best,
Simon

Those cylinders are NOT medical oxygen (these have a white band on top) they look like industrial oxygen, as used in cutting metal.
 
Perhaps they are in a workshop plus they are proberly empty if any thing through seepage. If any one goes there soon perhaps it might be worth leaving an anon note for security on the way out.

If that was the case, it's is a real scandal. With that said however, perhaps whoever bought it has more money spare which could be spent on keeping more of the original buildings? Thanks for the info Shads :)

Great pic's by the way that place is beautiful:)

Thanks KA :)
It's somewhere that I wanted to go to for ages. Lots more to see there, so will be sorting out a return visit for sometime in the next couple of months (assuming they don't start leaving the killer sheep inside to guard the place!) ;)

P.s. -no need to sell ya own organs -sure there are bits left in the Mortuary somewhere! :mrgreen:
