Northgate Psychiatric Hospital - Great find

[#Dan#]

Real sorry to anyone who has not been able to see my other photos but they are now view-able again...

I haven't posted in a while as I've been clearing up with college work and stuff but I recently did an explore in Northgate hospital. It was great to resume with urbex as I hadn't the time for a while but now I'm back

As far as I know this hospital has been closed since 2007 but i'm not accurately sure...

A very interesting explore which had a church room inside along with 2 pianos!! (Finally found one ) This hospital was in a bit of a state in some of the rooms and as I walked along one of the corridors I noticed a hole in the floor with a lid up... The whole of the hospital had an underground so I poked my head under, my torch wouldn't hit anything! it was completely pitch black down there... I always see square pallets on the floor when I'm in a hospital so maybe every hospital has an underground?

I also found an x-ray room but sadly, no x-rays

funnily enough this place looks like it's lights are on but they aren't - it was just windows filtering in sunlight (which helped a lot)

Anyway here are some pictures, some shot in monochrome...

Don't ask why there is a McDonalds chalk board here because I don't have a clue

Thank you for looking

Still in pretty good nick really. Some interesting rooms you found too.

As far as I know, quite a few of the older hospitals have tunnels linking all the buildings to the central boiler house for heating purposes, and most likely for the other services too. I'm not sure if they are technically steam tunnels like the US counterparts though.

Looks like you got into have an explore at the right time. These places do tend to deteriorate pretty quick

That's very nice.

You may wish to blur out the personal details on the photo of the cards though as it would not be nice for a relative to find a name in a forum in this way.

It looks to be in really good nick considering.
