Urbex: Hawks Morgue, Durham - January 2015 (2 Visits)

Hawks Morgue – Porcelain Slab

A nice little morgue in a small outbuilding of a large abandoned hospital complex, complete with a stunning porcelain slab!

First visit

Visited this one solo after being unable to join my usual pals in their weekend of fun. This morgue had been popping up on the web for a few months and despite attempts at seeing this one in the past we had been unsuccessful in photographing this rather nice morgue.

After speaking with a few friends, information suggested the place was once again accessible and so I took the opportunity to visit while I could. This was the only location of what turned out to be a short trip but I was quite happy with the results 🙂 . It was a pity about one of the side benches being removed which left me feeling the shots were a little imbalanced but the slab was in great shape, probably one of the most impressive porcelain autopsy tables I have seen. Enjoy the photos:

Revisit

I went back with Andy de Kay of Behind Closed Doors only 1 week later for another few shots of this nice porcelain slab.
