I agree, it would make a nice still life too, even with the calcification build up on the paint chips.

long with narrow, that would make a great painting staying with the black and white and using titaium and mars for your two colors.
Truly inspiring, minus the crud on the floor, but truly amazing.

Wall tiles don't come off that easily, even if there is that much bonding on the wall....hmmm I note a lot of angst there.

There is something not quite right about these stairs. These stairs are very short. It seems as though these stairs were built almost without a reason; almost as if the people who built these stairs had no real idea as to why they were even constructing them in the first place. I think that someone came up with an idea for a short - cut to get some where else but that same short - cut was never really popular with anyone who had to walk up and down these small
stairs. Well that is how I feel about these stairs.

Breathtaking and aweful! It reminds me of the graphics in the computer game "The Black Mirror" I wonder if St. Margaret's Hospital wasn' t the inspiration for the game.

If the tunnels run under the old hall then they are more than likely to be the old wine cellars and coal stores. Its quite common for them to be barrel vaulted.
