I think the plaster wall cracked in an interesting way, rather than there being a field stone wall.

Thank you for the new gallery, it is much appreciated. It is so refreshing to see no graffiti or vandalism. If you could have only found a lonely chair or a soap dispenser.

For now we see through a glass darkly

There is something forlornly beautiful in tattered curtains. Why go to the trouble of disconnecting the radiator and sink only to move them a few feet (or a meter or 2)? They had to know they would be heavy.

Hi Mica, was thinking of you and lamps as well. Was wondering if you would notice the 3 hinges, you never let us down. Best wishes to you.

It is a handsome building. Hope they were able to restore and reuse it.

Thanks for the new gallery. Been looking for sites to explore in my area but they are getting few and far between. This site is both an inspiration to take photos and a wonderful refuge from the fact that my part of the US lacks abandoned sites. Thanks again, Motts!

And if you want varied colors, set it on fire!

LOLOL you people crack me up.

6 or 7 years ago, THIS look was being asked for as Crackling. Some paint stores still sell the paint and instructions on how to to do to your walls. Just let your place go and wait 20 years and you can have it for free! haha! :D

Following standard hospital document retention policies, all old paperwork was stuffed into an abandoned room so it could be rifled through and lit on fire decades later.....hahaha! Truth!

Love the old mirrored medicine cabinet. Always reminds me of old hotels.

I came here just to see if mica had saw the lamp. Im glad you did! :) Tell me what gives you such an interest in lamps? Are you interior home decorator? I also have a thing for these shots of old tattered curtains in windows. Nice shot!

Indeed! Thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you so much! Lamps, transom windows, curly paint - got it all - hazy mirrors too

Good floor underneath - beehive pattern very nice

You haze?
