Don, it would be nice if a LOT of these buildings could be saved from oblivion, but that doesn't detract from this really nice piece of art Motts has given us all. Chill mang!

the branches almost look like stained glass, amazing shot

incredible.

motts u never disappoint haha

amazing! although ive visited the site many times i never got into this building so its great to finally see it from the inside. Such a shame the site is now just full of awful newbuild 'shoebox' buildings!

wow expatbrummy - sounds like u actually were there when it was in operation?

i live nearby this place and remember in the latter days having a couple of characters who were often wandering around the area whom were said by local kids to be residents at 'maggies' .

I used to go and nose around often after the hospital closed. It was like time just stood still one day and you still felt like the resident of the room you were in would come and catch you any minute!

The damage was not to the extent shown or described here when i used to explore the place as a kid. Then it was eerie - Id find personal belongings, clothes, beds, wheelchairs etc i even found a collection of christmas cards and drawings.

I kinda gave up going when the security stepped up last went in around 2001/2002 - didnt fancy gettin chased by dogs! Shame i never thought to take a camera huh?!

WOW! So powerful this is by far my favourite piece I've seen so far

anyone notice the can on the ground? looks like someone beat you there, motts!

Break The Walls Down!!! lol

maybe because it's frozen in time? Or maybe they used different kinds of paint? Who knows....but I agree this is definately one of the best "frozen in time" shots I've ever seen

everyone loves a slinky

The fact it mentions Baghdad might lead me to believe that it was left here possibly during the first Gulf War????

the lunch menu consists of ghost toasties and air sandwiches today. It is the house specialty we sercve it often

I was wondering the same thing. Then it dawned on me they probably didnt take into consideration the wind. The nuclear fall out would fall straight down. Now days we know that it can be carried by the wind.

Born on my moms birthday, and died on mine. Strange.
