St Crispins - "The Clock Tower" December 16

[Jsp77]

Last time I was here i never got to climb up the tower, due to some mindless kids smashing things up and the the old Bill turning up. I no theres not much to see in the tower but it was something i wanted to do, just to have a look for myself really and so glad i did as you get some lovely views of just what is left on site. 

I visited with a  non member, who kindly took the last photo

St Crispins was a large psychiatric hospital on the outskirts Northampton and established in 1876 as the Berrywood Asylum and closed in 1995.

Very nice set of a beautiful ruin. Great that you could climb to the clock tower.

I like the aerial shots, gives a nice view of the layout. Shame this place is in that state now but even so the clock tower remains pretty attractive

That tower is lush. Excellent pics from the top! Nicely done.

Nicely done, I like the look of that. Probably the best way to look at the rest of the site too judging by the state of it

I can understand having a "thing" for towers - I was exactly the same about sevs until I finally managed it.

What this specific tower has done, however is contributed to this awesome shot;

Nice one.
