The Cottage Hospital. Thetford, Norfolk. Pic Heavy.

Black Shuck · Dec 7, 2009

Had an extremely early Morning Explore with the very Sprightly M02W Team to visit this small Local Hospital in the Breckland Town of Thetford in West Norfolk. I cannot find a lot of History about this Hospital Suffice to say it bit the Dust in about 2007, I think! Comprising a small General Ward an Audiology Dept and the Star of the explore a fully intact X Ray Room where some Urbex Shannagins were enjoyed! Anyway less of the Waffle and on with the Pics... On arrival, we found reception...

I dont think anyone will be making a call on this for some time to come!

I though this was a nice Touch! aaah!

Nothing like a Mouldy Bed!

An X Ray Lightbox, we deduced!

I found this nifty little Gadget on a Table in a long Defunct Office

The Explorer Kid doing a Long John Silver Impression! Pieces of Eight!

Man of 2 Worlds doing a Frakenstein Impression! Its Alive I tell you ALLIIVVE!!! :lol:

Explorer Kid Cotemplating, Life the Universe and Mating Habits of A Garden Snail!

Hes so Cool! :lol:

M02W Once again!...

Your looking Good Fella!

This is the Small Audiology Booth..

Thats all Folks!

The Place was pretty trashed inside as the Local Neanderthals had been using the place as a Drug Den. All in all a good explore with Great Company.

Thanks Speed! The place was quite trashed although the XRay room was the Highlight of the explore!

It was ok. Be careful though, as there loads of Needles.

Wow, I'm Impressed shuck, fantastic photoset, with druggies using the place I'm suprised as much is there as is.

Black Shuck · Dec 15, 2009

Yes it was quite a scaryscene but just a question of common sense really.

You cant just pop in dude. It was a bit different!

UrbanX · Dec 16, 2009

Nice one! It's in better condition than most of Thetford!
Loving all the old equipment like the kidney trays. You done a good job of lighting it too, as I'm assuming it was pitch black?!

i grew up partly on abbey farm (7 years) in thetford. then moved back for a while. this used to be my local! i remember going here with my mum!.

i know you can't just "pop in". the big fence around the outside is a bit of a deterance.

but i think i'll add this to my list!

Anthillmob74 · Dec 16, 2009

b-i-l lives on the site of the old safari park? aparently.

Black Shuck · Dec 16, 2009

I honestly didnt know there was a safari Park.

Potter · Dec 17, 2009

That really is fantastic.

I'm amazed that security monitor isn't smashed.

Black Shuck · Dec 18, 2009
