It’s been done many times so rather than bore you with facts copy/pasted from wikipedia – on with the shots!
It was a glorious sunny morning, and I was picked up by hiddenshadow and shadowplay. We spent a few hours covering as much as we could without getting lost and finding ourselves back in the same spot too often.


Main building and entrance.


Old partitions.


Collapsed corridor.




Circular skylights.











Isn’t it just?






Kitchens.


Main distribution board.


Phone booth.






The slab base! The smashed porcelain had been chucked through the window.


Body store – Where we should house the scum that smashed the slab!


The Chapel.

One of my first proper 'splores back in the day, always have a bit of a soft spot for the old girl but she's looking a little tired now sad.
