cane hill the final visit june 08

paid a visit today with goldie87 and kezza (thanks for driving:thumb)
after spending some time checking out access we found it and in we went
i cant belive how much the place has changed since last month!
we where inside looking to get into the buildings when goldie decided to go and look for any signs of security (we didnt see him again until we came out)
while we where walking kezza turned to me and said there was someone looking and waving at us in one of the windows to be totally honest i nearly shit myself!! we waved back and we where gone. only to find out later it was nursepayne when we bumped into her later on(really nice to meet you and put a face to the name)look forward to seeing your pictures too.. anyway on with my pictures.
admin i was pleased to get this as last time we only saw the back of it as they kicked us out.




kezza looking for a bed


im sure there is 2 beds missing?

the good old spakka bike







some of the demo work



thanks for looking

Nice one, it looked so weird with all the greenery gone!
Got the pics I was missing anyway lol

Second pic is awesome. I love the grime of the corridor.

This looks like a great place to go. Its weird how some of the beds are still made? Nice explore!

Nice pictures.
"Spakka bike" though, not very PC, old chap. I asked about it before and was rebuked.

Sometimes that's the advantage of going with at least one other person -so you get to cover more area, with one person going off one way, another somewhere else, occasionally meeting up to exchange comments, sights, discoveries etc.
Can we expect to see some of your outside snaps? (or have i totally missed them!)

Lb:jimlad:

Soooooo glad i got to see this!!!!

Nurse payne scared thehell out of me! heard a nockin and thought it was security at first, looked around still nothing then i saw a face and shat myself!!!! lol.

But yeah! thanks for showing me the place! couldnt beleive the needles n crap where still left around! :shocked::chatterbox:

And the beds! They where awsome!


Still,,,,, doesnt beat High Royds at all! Love that place! Cane hill is pretty freaky to me!

Oh and if you do go, watch the floors! lol:jiggy:

heh heh !!! I like that last picture.......
That is one serious piece of demolition machinery....go on....gimme a drive!!... hehheheh !!!
A man sure could do a tidy amount of damge in a pretty small amount of time with summat like that hehehehehehehh!!!
Sorry.I guess its the demolition man in me rearing his head after all these years ........

this collection is fantastic, I havn't tackled my first hospital or mental asylum yet, but I can't wait.

great pics

The chapel and Admin are locally listed and will not be touched Not Listed by EH but we did give it a good go!

The tower should also be kept due to local popular opinion!
