Wow. I just love how that white wall just ends. Like it's a movie set or something.

The colours in this shot are amazing! Damn I keep wanting to see this place when it was still in good shape. :-(

I can't get over all the details in this one picture, i would also have liked to see this place before it was abandoned.

Motts, don't apologize! The way you get so much in a single shot is one of the things that I love most about your work! : )

Wow! What an angle, indeed. It's a little extreme, and disorienting...but all the while, it's still quite beautiful. Lovely work.

I'm telling you. This is a National Treasure. I don't live in the UK but, don't you have some kind of Historical Society that could save this place and restore it?? HIT UP THE PRINCE!!!!!

I've spent many a happy over Maggies digging bottles from the old hospital,it's a crying shame the state it has got into, all for the sake of "progress"

Its a grade II* listed building, they're holding on to it. They're so slow though. I wish I could buy it and restore it with my fortune

Man, I wish I could rescue the skylights and lattice work from this place. You just don't see that kind of craftsmanship anymore, even in the most expensive, creative mansions. Makes me sad.

The state that the council and other so called officals have let the hall get into you certainly wouldn't think it was a grade II listed building, sometimes when I look at it I think that it's been let get into this state on purpose because if it falls down then they won't have to restore this wonderful building and that greatly angers and saddenes me. it is about time someone did something before this is the case and it is lost forever.

other people have said a lot of pics make them dizzy, but this is the first pic where I almost fell off of my back-less computer stool.
