Reminds me of the photos of furniture in Pripyat (see Chernobyl). The people sent in after the explosion slashed up the furniture to keep people from coming in and taking it to sell because it was all radioactive.

Okay maybe I am crazy, too, but I can see it!

Wasn't this a medical/surgical building for soldiers? Why is mike1968 talking like it was part of the asylum?

Interesting. I have never had my eyes examined by anything that looked like this.

It looks like the doors on the left were put in upside-down. That would explain why the doorknobs are so high up.

Motion blur?

ECT actually causes a seizure and used to be quite dangerous because they didn't give people any medication beforehand, so there was a risk of them breaking their backs or other bones. Now it is much safer and people are given a sedative and I believe also a muscle relaxer to prevent them from breaking bones. Still doesn't sound much fun, though, but for some people it's the only thing that helps.

I say clear up the debris and put down some grass seed and let someone move right in. =)

You also have to remember that a lot of mentally ill people do smoke themselves. Schizophrenics have been known to be chain smokers because the nicotine calms down their brain a bit. So it's not unusual to find a smoking room in a psychiatric hospital at all.

"Son!!! You forgot to MOW the VESTIBULE!!! Get busy!!!"

That made me choke and pound my desk. Thanks for the laugh!

If Wales is anything like Ireland, and I'd assume it is, it's probably limestone.

Why would you want to announce that you are going to sneak into a building when it's against the law here of all places? You know how easy it would be for someone to report you?

You people make me feel very young.

I like the graffiti at the end of the hall.
