ST GEORGES STAFFORD COUNTY ASYLUM (DUE FOR CONVERSION REPORT)
THE LOCATION.
St Georges asylum is Stafford has stood proud since 1818 and has the most elegant façade i have seen on a asylum, this building saddens me due to the state it`s been left to get in...its a real good example of the demise of mental care in the uk...floor after floor of cells and day areas...with rotting floors and fire damage.
THE BUILDING.
the building itself is very large with symmetrical wings...and a great water tower that demands the views over Stafford...with a bit of a climb and a squeeze you can go right into the tank.
THE FUTURE.
it`s been up for conversion for years into a multi purpose complex and nothing has been done yet..except a huge spiky fence around...so fingers crossed for this one...a great explore for anyone.
the old days
today...
water tower
look what we found
floor 2
stair well
floor 3
chapel
fire damage
off the wall
the future
