What a HORRIBLE place to be in !

That fence must have looked liked a giant claw looming over the patient just waiting to clamp down on him or her. All of the landscapes in these institutions need to be completely redone.

Good God ! Did anyone ever really sit in these chairs ? They look like a person could sink into them and never get out again.

Thank you for responding Colin.

I thought that those electrical plugs were European in design. I just went to "google maps" to see where Sunderland, England is. Sunderland looks like a nice place. It does not look anywhere as busy as London. This website is just super !

Thank you again.

Nee; thank you for responding. Now when I take a second look at it I now see that it is an overhead light. I don't know why I did not see this before. These photographs by "Mott" are so great ! Now that Spring Time is here and Summer is coming I should drive around Europe and see if I can find some old buildings and take some photographs. When I take the train around Germany I see some old train stations but it is illegal to walk around the railroad tracks. I sure that there are some old vacant buildings around somewhere.

Thank you again and take care.

GOOD ! Thank you Andrew for responding.

I hope that they turn this land into a nice park with trees and running water.

Lina; thank you for responding. Did the patients try to jump alot ? This website is so amazing ! I have been learning so much as I have been reading everyone's experiences.

Take care and thank you.

As a Soldier I have taken part in several burials as a member of the funeral detail or as the Army likes to call it; Ceremonial Detachment. And to think: that some of the dead soldiers that I have buried are lying down on straw like a cow in a barn is horrible.

When it is time for me to die I will go to the funeral parlors and cut open the lining of the coffin and see what is inside of it. I will now have to do research on coffins and see what other types of materials that are used to fill up a coffin.

Whitehawk and Blackhawk; Do you have any references or websites that i can go to so that I can read up on the strange medical history of Connecticut ?

Do you have any references or websites that I can go to to read up on the strange and twisted medical history of Connecticut ?

Are those trees or large bushes growing up through the exposed rafters ?

Hello Patricia, how are you ? Thank you for responding.

When I look at these photographs that are on this website I almost always try to write the very first thing that pops into my head. That way it is the most candid comment possible. I have written several comments so far. "Mott" seems to have a very good eye for taking photographs. I on the other hand just snap away with a camera. Every once in awhile I take a photo that I actually think is good but that is few and far between. This is a great website ! I am glad that someone is preserving these buildings with a camera. Some of these old buildings have some great architecture. Hopefully some of these buildings will be re - used again.

Take care and thank you.

It almost looks like two glowing eyes are looking at me through the glass in the door.

I need to clean out my closet one of these days.

My very first thought when I took one look at this photograph was the movie "Star Wars".

Those platforms jutting out like that remind of some of the large ships in the Empire's fleet.
I can just see Darth Vader standing on one of these platforms cursing Han Solo.
