Hey everyone. Sorry for going all quiet again. Been a pretty ****** up year so far. Exploring has been the ultimate escapism and my count for the year so far is over 80!
Got a lot to share. All my free time is spent editing and I have limited internet access just now.
Rosslynlee is a place I both love and utterly hate at the same time. I am so glad to have finally got this place done after many fails over the years.
I was back home in May and went 3 times, 2 of which were fails. I was back up on a road trip with prettyvacant71 in June and we had 3 visits in the space of 48hrs, It was a pretty mad couple of days. We managed to get into the morgue first, squeezed into the main, some scrotes booted their way in so we went out, back early the next morning with easy access and got sealed in, I came pretty much face to face with secca and scurried off and lost PV, she got booted out while I hid in the dark, after he gave up looking for me I went upstairs to get signal and found out her camera had been blown over and her lens was smashed, I had to find another way out, trip to Edinburgh for a new lens, back in a different way, then we were joined by HiddenScotsman and Lormack in the evening. Told you two I'd get you in one day!
So yeah, god knows how many hundreds or miles driving, ball ache access, and PV's most expensive explore.
History:
Rosslynlee Hospital was founded in 1874 under its original name of Midlothian and Peebles Asylum (1874 - 1948) then changed its name to Rosslynlee Mental Hospital (1948-60). Set in 64 acres of land, it was a psychiatric hospital until late 2010 and eventually closed early 2011 as it was deemed surplus to requirements due to the construction of the New Midlothian Community Hospital at Mayshade, Eskbank which was completed in September 2010.
Rosslynlee Hospital is a Category C Listed Building and used to house a closed community of up to 500 patients within its extensive grounds.
Externals:
Morgue and chapel of rest:
One of the wings I got into in May:
Back to June. Glass repair workshop:
Carpentry and maintenance workshop:
Now on the the beautiful main. After years of peace and quite and protection she is decaying away gracefully with hardly any vandalism.
A chair shaped mushroom!
And finally, a rainbow over Rosslynlee
Thanks for looking! Plenty more to come, I promise!
