asylum

Explored with Therealindianajones, Luke and Flava

Well we all know this old girl! It only took four and half years to get here, and 2 months to get round to putting up the report! Borrowed from Humpas report (28dayslater) and updated A nice relaxed start to a holiday with the Mrs, and no sign of Beardy :-) No access to admin as it was pretty...

Ok, so not alot of history was found on this one apart from it was built between 1853 -1859 as a Corridor Plan Asylum as the Northumberland County Pauper Lunatic Asylum. It was opened with six males and six females from Bensham Asylum in Gateshead. The asylum was built at a cost of £58,000 to...

Explored with SK and mrs silent will not forget how hot this place was nearly ended up stripping of :errr: :o oh no they left someone behind

Sadly I didn't see the living legend that is Elwyn but I did hear someone walking around outside with what sounded like a rather large dog going from the barking. I had one job on for the day that was in Ruthin and as the only other thing that is nearby is Pool Park and I was in there a month...

2013: Still there looking good! 2012: I have been wanting to get inside this since 2009, and TBM managed to get us (Me, His girlfriend, my girlfriend and me) some permission as its has always been tight. Please excuse some of the pissed shots, I'm getting used to a tripod with no spider...

[CENTER]After driving through the night to reach a particularly nice set of headstocks the second stop of the Englandshire trip was to this old beauty. Arriving early in the morning, we found the perimeter to be surround by police, I must have counted about 20 or so High Vis jackets. On the...

i was here a few weeks ago and never saw the bearded one, the main building has been stripped and all the floors removed. i don't know when it happened but i hadn't seen anything on it! so was a little gutted but on with the photos stripped main building off the silo roof

I'm sure you're all familiar with the history of this place, so I won't bore you with it. Our trip Explored with _Nyx_ This was a bit of a last minute decision to go here, having planned on doing a mill and what a good decision it turned out to be. Loved the place!!! Initially I...

Visited on a very cold, early morning during a Lincolnshire road trip I went on last winter. I was so cold and tired on this particular morning that I managed to forget to put on my shoes before leaving the car, so ended up doing the whole explore in my slippers! However, it was very much...

Another instalment and the last site visited on Scattergun's and mine's Englandshire trip. Too end the trip we spent the night with BadBatz (cheers for putting us up again dude) and hit the road early to pick up AltDayOut and to visit the Welsh Sugar Asylum, this was the last stop on our...

Hello everyone!! This is my first post on oblivion state. So i picked my favourite place Severalls! I LOVE this place and have spent quite a lot of time at sev's and chatting to mike all 11 visits!! The photos are taken over 10+ visits starting 2013. (The longest visit i was there 6 hours...

Only a few more things to post now from my epic explore week, I'd held off posting a report from here due to a few others springing up around the time I got back. It's fair to say this is probably the #1 urbex tourist spot in all of Belgium and for that reason I was unsure about going due to...

Visited with Revelation_space back in July 2010, This is a very very decayed site but I still quite enjoyed the wander around it. Spent about 5 hours here before we accidentally knocked a board down and alerted security to where we were, made a sharp exit after that. some history on the place...

OK, as I've just registered on the site I thought I'd better get something up sharpish :-) A lot of my explores are on the tourist trail so thought I'd dig out something which has not see a lot of traffic. This place started out as a private Lunatic Asylum in 1813. In the early 1850's it was one...

I visited this place last year when I was trying to see as many asylums as possible before they were knocked down or converted. I must have got to this one just in time, as last time I visited there were people living in it. It was nice to see the building being put to good use and the...

Randomly stumbled across this place whilst out on a long adventure, to people who don't like lack of decay please look away, heating is still on and all lights working, no chavery yet! Lets hope it stays that way! Thanks for looking :)

Not seen a lot from this place on here, so please have some love for the old dear. History has been done many times. These were taken over two visits in Sept and Dec last year. Cheers

The Lancaster County Lunatic Asylum Lancaster Moor Hospital (formerly known as The County Lunatic Asylum). During the nineteenth century Lancaster became a provincial centre for the treatment of mental illness. In 1809 it was decided that the proposed County Lunatic Asylum would be built at...

My first post so here goes...Mods..if I've cocked it up please be gentle.. I'm sure you all know about Sevs so I won't bore you with the history.. We drove to Severalls from a sunny but chilly corner of Kent in lovely blue sunshine and arrived to find it dull and very much overcast! This...
