765 Comments for Taunton State Hospital

What a journey through time of another age...the age of asylums. Thank you for posting, Motts. I look forward to more galleries like this one.

Those curtains don't fit that window properly, way too short!

I think this one could be refurbished and made to look like new again.

Now this would actually be a nice place to relax. Nice little window seats and no steel grating on the windows, which makes for lots of light pouring in on a sunny day.

Another lonely chair waiting at the end of the corridor hoping a visitor will come.

Wonder if that incandescent bulb still has some life left to it?

Did you see much writing on the walls in this place? From the photos so far, it doesn't seem so.

A little diversion from a usually drab day.

Looks like they just recently cleared the place out. ;-)

Oh...and the lonely chair waits in the corridor. Perhaps someone will come for a visit. Why yes, it's Motts and his crew!

Sand and spackle the walls and slap a coat of paint on and you're good to go.

Eldokid: I was thinking the same thing. Just a few times in the washing machine with soap and bleach and it could look close to brand new. ;-)

Makes one wonder how the chairs ended up this way.

Another room where the light fixture appears to be in pretty good condition.

They don't make door knobs like that anymore.
