asylum

Ok so I have no real idea what to write today, I promise I'll think hard about tomorrow as the last day of the month but for today I thought I'd just post some pictures of a really beautiful place that sadly no longer exists

 

I walked miles and miles in the grounds of this beautiful building in the last few weeks of my pregnancy with Shorty and I always thought it was very sad that it was being left to fall down.

I didn't know it looked like this inside, but I wish I'd had chance to have a look before they knocked it down.

It will be replaced by 700 houses over the next few years and eventually people will forget that people use to be sent here when it was an asylum and they used to think themselves lucky.  With beautiful countryside and a view of the sea this was the place to be sent apparently.

Anyway I loved the building and the grounds but sadly progress rolls.
