solitary confinement? no windows? no light? not nice in any way shape or form.......
I used to really hate swimming pool floor areas like around and inside the changing rooms...all wet and sometimes dirty and people walkin around in bare feet...this photo makes me feel a bit sick...
No, it's wonderful that nature was used as a means of giving the patients some connection with the outside world. It may even have been done by one of the patients as art therapy. I love it
of course it's not fake! why shouldn't there be a panic button for staff? My mum worked in an institution where she cared for physically handicapped people and she was often attacked. Surely this is for such times?
Gets me why there's a full stop there though ;)
did anyone mention that this pattern is fleur de lyse? (How many times??? lol)

The whole site isn't completly derelict! I work here now- It's mainly used for training and nhs background work- There are still some residents here that are allowed to roam around the grounds! Tis a bit creepy on dark evenings tho!

Those poor horses have hooves, and can't possibly open it! (sigh) What asses, whoever designed those doors!

Yeah, Eric I know. and it is sad that rooms of this design also were used for people,
without a way to get out. I was only making an observation with my above post, not being
inconsiderate of the poor patients that had to stay in this room for extended amounts of time.
