This looks like something from an old victiorian ghost story...I adore it!
Wonderfully done!
You can almosy feel the despair in this place
This reminds me of some frightening backstage theater production...
Simply amazing!

I think this is Laurels West 4, a female ward. The door leads leads to either an exit corridor or to a dormitory, but my memory is a bit dim on this one.

this is a pic of Laurels West 2 the female distrubed ward. The difference is doors is due to the fact that some rooms with panel doors are office or storage, but the thicker planked doors would have been used as patients side rooms. they were lockable (but not used) and the handle was on one side only on some doors on rooms that were used for close observation

most of the side windows have gone now, so the wind whistles straight htrough. Originally, the chapel, which was non denominational, had long rows of pews from back to front, (if you look carefully at the photo you can see where they were located on the floor). Male patients sat on the left, female patients sat on the right. They entered and left by the left or right hand side doors.

Madnic is quite right, this was the male disturbed ward. I did night shift on here for a while, there was only ever two of us on duty and it could get quite hairy sometimes, but I have lots of affectionate memories for the place.

the shot is of either Laurel East 1 Ward, which was a male ward, or Laurels West 1 Ward, which was a female ward. I can't quite recall from memory which it is, but it can only be one of either.
