Abandoned care home - March 24

[NancyM88]

Go gentle...this is my first post! This is an abandoned care home not far from where I live; build 1915 as a private house and empty for a few years. It was sold a couple of years ago apparently but nothing seems to have happened much though there was a sizeable digger in the grounds and one of those workmen temporary bog/canteen units.
The Dementia wing is really suffering; lots of rain water damage but the main old part of the property is in relatively good nick. If it's left much longer though, it'll soon get more knackered. They've boarded some bits and not others and taken alot of the door frames out; not sure why that would be. The upside down bed was a bit weird though we suspected teenagers mucking around. Some patient notes still kicking about too.
It was quite a sad place to be.

Nothing wrong with that, some cracking stained glass in there, thanks for sharing.

thank you, nice photos, a good looking house and everyone here likes the beautiful stained glass.
'some patient notes still kicking about too...'
this makes me so mad. What about confidentiality and respect ? but it's common in abandoned NHS hospitals and facilities too. And in abandoned factories, with personal details about former employees scattered about.
sorry, rant over

Hi Paul why not do a few posts on here instead / as well as promoting your you tube, I assume you already have other places you have done.

Jeez, they’ve STILL not done anything with this? Went here over a year ago now and I really expected movement on this place by the summer. Do I smell something convenient is going to happen to this place for the developers?

Poor stained glass. This is how it was in October 2022…

Good for you but if you expect any one to look at it you need to post photos we are not here to advertise your YouTube Chanel
