Those beds do not look like they would be very nice to sleep on even when the hospital was still in use

Thank you emma! I do see the wooden supports now that you have said that. I just dont get it. Why build a lovely fireplace and sit a ugly gas radiator in front of it !??
I lived on the Queslett Road opposite the woods of The Colony (St Margaret’s Hospital) before the road was made into a dual carriageway. As child I use to climb over the wall and play in the woods with the other kids down our road - on many occasions we got chased off by people with dogs.
On my last visit to Great Barr I was amazed to find that the whole area has been developed into housing and the woods are beiing cleared, which is really sad for that estate, I belive the Hall has now been demolished? The long main drive with the white building at the top with a clock tower will always stay in my memory.
My grandfather told me that old Lady Scott's Taylor committed suicide in a canal or lake as he was sacked from his job with the Scott family because he tried to reopen a public footpath that Lady Scott had closed off. Not sure how true his story is but it's interesting.

When I look at this it almost looks like a Victorian science fiction image for War of the Worlds. The door opens to an alien craft standing outside. Great juxtaposition.

Mr Motts, maybe a FAQ but I haven't seen it answer. What do you do in these places if you need to go to the toilet? It seems wrong just to poop in a corner but still, I'm curious.
Great to see a new selection as always and keep up the great hobby!
