Brick Stairwell

Juicy fruit

They aint tiles - they are bricks - I went to the site when it was being demolished . you walked to the bottom of a stairwell like this one and there was a mountain of those bricks and rubble - . loads of new houses being built there now , in " victorian style " . But there are 2 blocks still standing that " may" be left and converted

Hey Guys - I`m off to buy some rooftiles there from the demolition co. How cool is that to repair your roof with historic asylum tiles . Good news is they aren`t demolishing ALL of the complex. ! the part @ the East end is being kept and re furbished - the 3 storey part with the conservatory running along it . Won`t start for 2 years but it will be awesome

Hi, Sarra....you`ll be allright, there`s more out than in nowadays with care in the community.lol in fact there`s a LOT more on the loose in Hastings. I think you`ll get a better idea of the place from these remarkable photo`s....even when it was up+ running it had a certain air of sadness about it...apart from the Social Club, and that had an air of drunkenness about it lol.
