Nice color!

Nice!

hey dude its sad very sad there is almost nothing left there but they are saving the main building and are going to reuse it hey you should take some photos of the kirkbride in taunton its the last one in mass

the arrows or other markings are the route security are supposed to patrol. often there are 'swipe' points where they have to swipe a card to prove they have taken the proper route.

most british hospitals are well cleared out. much of the equipment can be reused and money in the NHS is very tight. what can often be found when exploring british hospitals are personal things from staff and patients. there is much patient artwork in cane hill hospital ,and patient records were left at severalls ,also clothing and photographs are left in many asylums. it's rather sad that stuff like the artwork ,which a tortured patient has put much effort into is just left lying on the floor uncared for.

looks like a can of diet pepsi by the table leg!
and a big nasty bread knife on the table.

I doubt very much that the police would bother to patrol a deserted hospital. The signs just supposed to scare people. I'm sure the police have quite enough to be getting on with on the streets!

I think those markings are for security. They mark the route they are supposed to patrol.

THAT HUGE SCALE MODEL OF THE COMPLEX IS IN THE PILGRIM MUSEUM AT BLDG #45 OPEN M-F 8AM?-4PM

Motts I just found your websites. Your pictures are perfect. I am really fascinated with the older asylums. I think they are built better then todays. (since i do work in one)

I agree with Lynne I wish all asylums had the slots like that.

wow, I remember going there once when I was a kid in the mid 80's. Very eerie seeing it as it looks today.
