Nice one, tbh I thought is was in way worse condition than it is. Some beautiful photos, some fantastic light in the hall too :)
 
such a shame the local cretins have trashed the place, nice pics considering the damage..... i would have lobbed a slate back at em or found a room to lock em in for a wee bit ;)
 
It's still hanging in there I see. No more fires lately then?

Just one thing though, it's not and never was an "asylum", it was a hospital. The asylums are a product of the Victoruian and Edwardian eras and even they changed their names to Mental Hospitals with the inevitable political pressure. Aston Hall was built so long after the asylum system that it never had that epithet.

Did you hear the handicapped patients at the nearby home screaming like animals in pain when you explored the boiler house? It didn't half make us jump.

iv herd a scream when i was walking out the main entrance. My friend who lives nearby said he saw a woman having a fit or something in there once.
