What floor me dear? Are you descending or accending. Each floor had a new and different dimension for all to experience.The truth is in the trip.

WOW that is amazing! Fluorascopes were really the precurser to x-rays. They actually operated more like a tv. You would stand behind it and a machine generated x rays though you to the screen. More xray energy than someone would see in a hundred lifetimes today. Talk about exposure. Its no wonder people didn't glow afterwards

I climbed through the left side of that, barely reaching the door running from the police.

Stunning photography. what a sin to waste these glorious buildings. They are overwhelming in their beauty and terror. thanks for capturing them before it is too late.
Woah!

I had that exact style of bed in the psychiatric hospital I was in when I was 15. Plus a plastic covered mattress, of course.

Its an old hospital thats still running but will probably be shut down in the next few years.

Theres a museum in the basement with all kinds of neat stuff like a hydrotherapy tub, anti-self abuse mitts, and much more creepy things. The movie "Beautiful Dreamers" was filmed there too.

The worst part was the restraint beds and the seclusion rooms with the bubble-style veiwing windows. oh and the slimey shower floor.

I agree on all the comments and was quite confused as to the location of this hospital in Northampton, I have lived in Northampton for 20yrs and have never come across the hopital. The realisation of why I had never seen the hospital then came to me, I live in Northampton, England. We are not the only country with great architecture.
