    Arrow East Sussex County Asylum - Hellingly - 13/06/09

    After the mammoth daytrip to West Park we (me, Dr.Doo, MagooČ and Scary Mary) decided a travellodge would be a better idea for Hellingly and thanks to this we were inside by 7.15am and had the place to ourselves for a few hours before the hoards of posh-kid explorers in designer jeans invaded.

    Designed by G T Hine.
    Opened 1903
    Closed 1993/4
    Own electric tramway from local station etc etc

    on with the pics...





    The beautiful tiles in admin are being systematically removed as souvenirs. A crying shame as for every whole tile removed half a dozen lay shattered on the floor. Whatever happened to take nothing but photos?







    Some of the graffiti and large photographic montages here are extraordinary. Not mindless tagging, in my opinion, a valid artform in an appropriate setting.











    Thanks for looking. Sure the others will have some pics to add.

    bloody grand set of pictures Muse ...it was a grand day out for the Usual Suspects, a great 'feeling' place.

    I'll try get some processed to post later.
