I just want to clarify: the previous owner did not give us permission to explore the Pines.....he allowed us to walk in his yard and enter the property. He made it clear that as former owner, he didn't have the right to ALLOW us or anyone to walk around the property.

my sister and I walked around the grounds and in many of the buildings about ten days ago. The former owner lives in the house next door, and allowed us to enter the grounds from his property Its much the same as in the pictures. We had the feeling we were not alone, there might be some homeless people living there.

They're actually called "stops"...like in the phrase, "pull out all the stops". It's a reference to the organ.

i was wondering if anyone who chats on this site happened to work at Pilgrim in the early 1950s, specifically 1950 to 1953. i just found out that my mother was an inpatient here for those three years. I would love to chat with anyone who might have known her. Her last name was Gleason, she would have been about 18 yrs old or so when admitted. I would appreciate any info you might have. Thanks,
