Sorry, it just absolutely had to be done, I know so many others of you have been in here
and even more seen the photos. But I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see such a place.

It was a completely surreal atmosphere to be in this place. Unexplainable.
Still can't decide whether I liked being in there or not, but some good photos were had
and I had to follow in AltDayOut's footsteps and make another famous structure

Just think for a moment, what was stored in here, and how many over the years of use?

Not sure I really want to know what these slides contained

The poor sod...

Brraaaiinsss...

...and The Leaning Tower of Pi..eces of brains

perjury saint · Jan 22, 2013

Ha, thanks! I generally photograph things as I see them (the brains being the one exception) I really like that photo of the brush on the ink - credit to you

West Park Mortuary Visit 2
January 2013
A visit with sweet_pea, his missus (romantic date), explorer101, Paul & Craig

So sweet_pea and I were due for a revisit anyway to try and get some different shots, I must say I was quite
disappointed with the photos I managed to get this time around though I did have a great time looking at the
paperwork I didn't see last time.
We took along a small army with us to protect ourselves from any Zombies hunting down the Braaaiinssss.

Not sure about you guys, but I thought this was kind of disturbing :neutral:

Anyone know what sort of printing this is?

Yolk sac?

A study of a family of seven

Definitely a Doctor's handwriting

Sorry for the blurry photo, but it's the only one I have of the Gallstones.

Our friend, someone's moved him again!

It seems a lot of the slides have gone walkies since our last visit earlier this month

You didn't expect me to visit and not get more photos of the brains did you?

Most slides were dated, earliest I saw was 1951

Did someone get a Dymo for Christmas?

We realised after our first visit that we really did need to return with a penguin...

UE-OMJ · Jan 30, 2013

I'm liking the notes, and record player. Maybe it was to add creepy background music while they worked... :lol:

I'm gutted/pissed (but not surprised) to see more theft from here - that bank of slides was totally full at one point wasnt it?

:icon_evil

shatners · Jan 30, 2013

Nice work mate... the paperwork makes for an interesting read

explorer101 · Jan 30, 2013

I don't think there was a completely empty bank of slides the first time I went but I didn't photograph this one before. But there was definitely a whole case missing also. As well as fewer 'brain blocks' unless I'm imagining it.

When we rolled up there was a large rubbish container outside the mortuary, at first we thought it may have been cleared out but it hadn't been yet.

Just seen a post from Darbians that apparently it was a blade sharpener?
I thought it was a record player, but then again, I was looking through a hole in a wall several feet away lol

Stealthstar79 · Feb 2, 2013

This place really excites me, must get here too!
Some great pics and great treats to be seen.
Thanks...

prettyvacant71 · Feb 2, 2013

Its an interesting explore

But ive meet sum explorers who thinks it ok to take stuff...but theres not much left to photo now so don't be greedy folks share the lurve and leave bits behind for others....and as for saying "I only took one thing" ...just imagine if everyone took one thing....thats wot a teacher told me wen i nicked stuff outa the tuck shop wen i was about 7! Bout the only thing a teacher said that makes sense today :mrgreen:
