| Hi, this is an exploration consisting of myself, CommunistCat and AnarchyInTheUK. We took a trip to this abandoned hospital and took various photographs of the site. The hospital was around 130 years old at the time of its closure. It was announced that it would be closed in late March 2011. Here is a selection of photographs that were taken on the site.

| Nice pictures there. Not too keen on the effects on the last one. It'll be a few weeks till I put my pictures up. | |

| Well I am new to photography, so I do not know what effects I should add. You should show me at some point. | |

| I personally dislike using effects, but I should do a bit of editing to some of my photos. | |

| Oh, so the effects on the photograph aren't necessarily bad. You just don't like them used? | |

| I think that's what CC meant, yeah. Personally I do like the editing, but I'd advise against the rounded corners.
Nice report mate, need to get myself here soon. | |

| I was just going for an older look haha. Regardless, cheers for the feedback. I would like to back and explore the rest of the place but I think its being demolished this month. Maybe a trip could be organised at some point. | |

| Being demolished? I've not heard anything about that mind, time to do some digging.
Reckon I'll have to get myself here sooner rather than later!

| Possibly, or the valuable stuff was removed by whoever owned the place. | |
