Admin,but sadly on this occasion,we werent fated to see it

But anyway..on with the show..we enter one of the famous corridors

We stop to experiment with the lighting

Double corridor

Messed about with

Same

Sadly,its getting a bit rotten now

Imagine folk busy going about their work up and down these corridors

First we stop off to see the store room full of personal affects

Clothes,shoes and cases..even documents

In 2008 this was all in very good order,but now in 2012,the site has been mostly cleared.

Quite sad really to see all this stuff..I bet many of the owners of this stuff have either died or been hospitalised in other places

Bad decaying paint

All lined up ready for their owners

Personal letters

Bit clearer

Lush bright rooms

Perfect peeling paint conditions

Same area

Slightly altered

Nice colours

Dereliction heaven

Black n white
