Hey Motts, awesome work as usual... you know what would be a shocking find? A gennie with windings intact!

Hi,
A few years back on Flickr were a group of locals to Great Barr whose photos included many shots within that hospital you show, but before it was ransacked. I tried to trace any on that site but failed, too long ago.
Though intruders they were serious in keeping threatened buildings preserved, albeit photographically. Most was as it was abandoned and interesting if somewhat spooky. Enjoyed a tour of yours. Cheers.

Any one know where I can find a list of former workers? ..someone with the first name Carl who may have worked in maintence?

Can anyone tell me what the name of the maintence man was who worked at Pennhurst? Was the first name Carl?

I've been by here in 2013. How is the security situation these days?

Love this Gallery. Look at the Tip of The Obelisk: it is two-toned. So cool! And the points are so SHARP. So neat.
Without destruction in mind, this really MUST BE an awesome place for neighbour-hood kids to explore.

There are still a few buildings there and today I saw an older lady maybe about 45 and she was sitting on the ground starring at a wall rubbing it then she looked at me and ran toward me so I had to hide for 30 mins then I got out as quickly as I could I recommend not going in there

I was an eight year old patient there in 1966. I have vivid memories of Newington Crippled Children's Hospital.

Plans for reuse go ahead

Is it just me, or does this look like some sort of robot? Like the middle parts are its torso an head, the two meters its eyes, and the pipes are its arms... :o

This is where all the ghosts party @ night LOL
What a waste of such a cute piano and bench, though...

Maybe that box is like Mary Poppin's purse and the rest of the poor dummy's lost in infinity. :o

I was raised in that area. My parents took me to Mass there from time to time. we had to be very very quiet and I always wore a veil. I could see where we would sit in the picture with the pews. It was very moving for me to see these pictures.

Wanderer, Thank You! I found the "Millbrook Independent" online. Nothing new on Halcyon that I can find online.

There were two rooms behind the double doors.. Mine would have been the one to the left..
