Report - Barnes Convalescent Hospital - Cheadle - nov09

[Bugsuperstar]

After the St johns explore earlier in the morning we were "chauffeured" over to Cheadle, none of us really new what to expect. The building itself is fantastic, i wish i could have seen the whole site before parts where ripped down. Inside it felt more like an old monastery than an old hospital.........

Exterior

Runner

In the cellar

Tea for two?

These fantastic arches remain

Upstairs.....

The timber roofing structure and detail is something else

but watch the floors

An old ward

The weather is not being kind to this site

Back downstairs to make our exit.

thanks for looking ........
