History There is a little more history on my first report from CHM in February 2013. Briefly the Main CMH hospital building was built in 1879 and featured heavily during the first world war in dealing with front line casualties. The hospital is also famous for being the place where plastic surgery was first performed…
History I don’t really know a lot of information about this place code named Schola CLXXV. It was a monastery with an attached school and this lovely chapel. Externally, from the main chapel doors, the place looks quite unassuming, however when viewed from the back it soon became obvious how large the place actually was.…
Château Gramophone was one of 3 large Villas built in this small town in Belgium. This one was occupied until 2008 and was left derelict full of the contents and memories of the previous owner. Weeks after these photos were taken we were informed that the Villa had been cleared of the contents and a…
History My 4th trip to the abandoned St Johns Asylum in Lincoln. Full history and photos from the first 3 visits can be found in the report from September 2012 & report from May 2013. Briefly the Asylum was built in 1852 and enlarged on several subsequent occasions in 1859, 1866, 1881 and 1902. The asylum finally…
Not much to say an old Orphanage building with some stunning features on the ground floor! Some awesome chandeliers and decorative coving / ceiling roses and lots of nice wood work! I’ve fancied checking out this place for along time but only this year seen more pictures of the other rooms which are extremely impressive…

The Abandoned Latvian Consulate House and Stables. An interesting property which was on the market for around £1,000,000 when it first became vacant but before it was in the condition it was when we visited. I don’t really know the full background on this one, I think I recall reading it became empty in the…
Not much to tell… another abandoned house in the UK. The previous owner was quite a fan of sewing and large jars of pickled stuff under the stairs… I really liked the bedrooms here! enjoy the photos 🙂 If you’ve made it this far… thanks for reading / checking out the pictures. Leave me a comment below…
The abandoned Whittingham Asylum and Hospital, whose grounds adjoin the village of Goosnargh, grew to be the largest mental hospital in the country, and pioneered the use of electroencephalograms (EEGs). The hospital eventually closed in 1995 and has been abandoned ever since…
