Well...Back at the local.

Visited with Scrappy (BA had a lazy morning :p)

Cant believe how the old girl has degenerated in the last 12 months since I last walked the corridors.
The beauty of the building still haunts what is left, but one cant help but feel sad. Doesn't even resemble the Whittingham I so fondly remember from 6 years ago when I first when in with a camera. Plaster broken from her limbs, doors swollen to the point of actually breaking the surrounding walls and floors destroyed through vandalism to the roof.

From what I saw in there, I doubt she has much fight left in her.

Its a crying shame to see the old Asylum in this state...here are my Broken Memories.

Main Corridor, about 4 years ago you could walk down here hardly making a sound!

The Main Hall, to think that 32 years ago patients and staff were doing the Hokey Kokey in here.
