while I was coming out of another abandoned building on this site I was looking at the other abandoned buildings on the site and then I stumbled across a entrance to another part of the hospital but I looked through the entrance and I was shocked that it was a very long corridor both sides into the other part of the hospital which was staff administration offices so I went back and got my camera and told my friends @Chloe Explores and my outer friend and I went back in the building and it didn't disappoint me most of the rooms were untouched from vandalism but quite a lot of rooms had a very large amount of natural decay with water coming through the walls like a waterfall making the wall is very damp and very mouldy with black mould and some of the ceilings were very black with mould but with everything else the Explorer was very intriguing because the hospital still had power so was able to turn the lights on in some of the rooms without getting electrocuted
