GoodBye to Floors252 viewsLooks like a shaft of fire took out this floor. Most odd it was so well contained!?
|
|
Map197 viewsInside we find a very handy map on the Fire Alarm control panel.
|
|
Lit Corridor220 viewsCome on in...
I'm not sure if it's because it's intense sunlight and pitch black in the next room, but the Hospital is starting to put Daz and I on edge.
We proceed with caution.

Lonely Corridor191 views
|
|
Ancient Equipment263 viewsThis old Telex machine stands guard. It appears un-concerned that we are inside.
It stares at us with a blank indifference. It's still hooked up to a phone-line; it could raise the alarm... It could report us.
It doesn't.
|
|
Long Abandoned Corridor193 views
|
|
Tower Bell223 viewsThe fire bell (original) can just be made out up the tower... I wonder if we will get a chance to visit this from the other (on top) side?
|
|
Banister215 viewsThe only un-molested banister left in the hospital.
|
|
Nice Curtains179 viewsOooohhh Lovely!?
|
|
Corridor195 viewsA quick vert-o-rama of the corridor. After hacking through the jungle outside with my tripod and getting my camera wet, photography was a bitch.
So if my photo's suck: that's why!

Out The Window381 views
|
|
Cool Tiles219 viewsLayers of paint sluffing off reveals these tiles. WHY would you paint over these??
|
|
Original Fire-Place247 viewsThe NHS simply ripped out and covered up a lot of nice original features.
Then left the place to rot.
OK... The NHS are perhaps not the best guardians of our architectural heritage.
|
|
School Bell Control 1165 viewsWOW! It's the School Bell.
Didn't work though!
|
|
Dicky Enters Security291 viewsAnd thus proves... It's no longer very secure!

It set us further on edge.
|
|
Ward 31 - Belfast Sink with Baby Changer275 viewsWhile this looks like a side draining board, it was labelled 'baby changer'.
Ouch!! Hard and cold!!
|
|
School Bell Control162 viewsSee, I think the fact some wee Ned threw it down the main stairs is linked to its defunctioned state?
|
|
Dicky Investigates220 viewsInside one of the long corridors on the second floor.
The building we are in was used as an Admin. base and some nurses accommodation. The actual wards of the hospital are long gone.
Well done NHS - for destroying our history and architecture: then leaving what's left to rot.
|
|
Please Do Not Lock228 viewsI could hang this sign on so many places!!
|
|
Boiler-2-Row-B128 viewsThe Diesel-Jet Boiler stacks. Each one of these 'flame throwers' had the main function of shooting fire inside the monster's belly... Heating water to spin the turbines on the three massive turbo-generators below.
|
|
Fire Exit193 viewsWell, there's no fire; but this could serve as a quick way to get back downstairs and home.
|
|
Power231 viewsBah, power's off!
|
|
Large Hall203 viewsThis was a more modern extension to the original building.
It's use I'm not sure - it wasn't a dining hall or an office...
|
|
Stained Glass Window181 views
|
|
Tower Daylight Bell174 viewsOne things for sure, neds can come and go: but this gigantic bell isn't going anywhere!
The urge to ring this is almost overwhelming... but of course we don't: I like my ear-drums intact thanks!
|
|
Mind the Hole267 viewsJust as we are walking down the stairs, Daz calls to Del.
DEL: STOP!!!!!
What's this? Del nearly disappeared down a fucking great hole: to certain death.
Oh well!
|
|
Stained Glass204 viewsNice. I'm glad this has survived!
