St. Johns, Lincoln - September 2009

[mr_bones]

This was my second trip to St. Johns, the previous visit had been a fleeting sweep around just one area in 2005. Since that trip, a second perimeter fence had been erected, asbestos removal had taken place and many of the previously boarded windows and doors were now exposed to the elements.

Oddly enough I would compare this place to North Wales Hospital in Denbigh - Sandstone construction, looks very nice from the outside and quite stripped on the inside!

Visited with Simon after Sleaford Maltings.

Some shots from my previous trip: (notice the main hall corridor is still covered over at this time).

Nice work sir, it's good to see it in its natural state.

Some great shots there Mr Bones.
Like the corridor one with the doors - excellent.
I really really like the covered corridor shot though - first I've seen with the roof, I'd always supposed it would have had a glass roof all the way across instead of the hybrid that's in your pics.

Great pics Mr B, the honey comb roof looks great looks like the place could use a lick of paint though
