Here are an amalgamation of all the High Royds photos that I have taken over 5 separate, wonderful visits with KooK. I only rue the fact that neither of us had 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.
On with the photos:
Pharmacy Lounge/Staff room, well trashed.
Peely paint central.
Entrance doors to Male Sick/Infirm Block.
Main Corridor on the first floor of Denton Ward.
Convex corner mirrors in the isolation/monitoring room.
Hook rescue knife cabinet - Contained tools to quickly cut down those who were in the process of ligature without harming the patient.
Spidey Graveyard
One of the many dead birds dotted around the place
The classic Royds shot.
One of the many many loos. We came across a location where someone had neglected to use one in a big way. Whoever that was, shame on you.
Stunning mould patterning.
No Spirits left here...

I wish I knew why they'd painted these rooms black, hardly conducive to providing a nice atmosphere for patients.
Thanks for checking by, hope you enjoyed my humble documentation of this mighty site.
