Papworth Hospital Therapy Unit Dec '15

[mookster]

This was a total chance find whilst trying (and failing) to find the abandoned church in Papworth Everard. Me and Harry had no idea what this place was and to be honest it looked rather crap from the outside, but walking round the back I poked my head in the window and saw a hospital dividing screen sat there pretty much inviting me in, so after a scramble we were both in and it's fair to say I was surprised here.​

 ​

Initially I thought it was some kind of general storage building but as we got further inside, the doors all had wheelchair push button openers and various signs around the building read 'ceramic studio' 'progress trackers' and such so it's likely some kind of therapy building for patients in the nearby hospital. It also featured, tucked in a dark corner, the best chair I have ever found in an abandoned building. A real supervillain's deal.​

That is awesome! Papworth has a massive history. I got to meet Prince Phillip & the queen here when he had a bypass a few years back. My nan had hers done at the same time. My nan cliped me round the head because I didn't curtsee hahaha 

Nice find, there are loads of places like this, they just have to be found

Chair is cool
