Here are a collection of photographs that I have taken over numerous, wonderful visits to this splendid Asylum. I only rue the fact that I didn’t possess the inclination to explore places such as this when they were in their Urban Exploration "heydey" so to speak...

The atmosphere that High Royds exudes, even now in its overgrown, semi-developed, dereliction is still one of proud beauty. Such phenomenal Architecture and detail, a true English wonderment, lost in part, and in typical fashion to developer's greed and in part... to nature and the elements.
Here’s my take:
