Rossendale Hospital - June 2012
 
On a really wet weekend not too long ago when the nation was planning all manner of street fetes. fate was with us on the day we decided to attempt Rossendale.

With previous attempts thwarted this time we will succeed

History abounds let the budding developers tell you how it is

Getting in inside is not the easiest and not bumping into secca and his dog is total luck of the dice .

Welcome...

http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8149/7...334ae5e5_c.jpg

from seeing previous reports I wasn't expecting the level of decay to be too bad but in parts it was pretty trashed

but pretty dry elsewheres

Artefacts and general "hospitalia" are quite in abundance here..

I dubbed this treatment room ward of the condemned even tho it wasn't technically a ward as such

It seemed a trifle sad to see Mike Oldfield loitering around the toilets like this, reminiscing perchance of past appearances on "Top of the Plops" or contemplating the release of a "Greatest Sh*ts" even....

Yes quite.... moving on did I mention that this place is just full of artefacts? Oh yes I did well more piks then...

Strange that a lot of these are newer than the hospitals sell by date...

I did mention that we were in the mental health block , there was evidence of a BITER...perhaps he was just hungry

Nice work, me and my friends recently attempted to get in. Alone I went for a quick peak, couldn't see any signs of a secca patrol. Although the place was lit up like a Christmas tree.

Went back for my mates, brought them to where I got up to. Told them we should do a quick perimeter search for secca, then straight infront of us was a guard walking towards us, we ran. Fast.

No doubt we'll go back though.
