THE SITE.

I am not political, but this place is very representative of the dark, recent history of this great wee country.

Originally it was an RAF Airfield during WW2 - as the first photograph illustrates !

The first prison (L-0-n-g K-E-s-H) was built on the main RAF runway, with the second built in the 70's ( HMP M4 zE)

ENTRY

As youd have guessed - extremely difficult! except on organised tours

THE REPORT - OUTSIDE THE BIG WALL

Team NI -'doing the do' again

Aerial view of the whole site - from left to right, new prison, L K, L K mil site

pic from the frot door so to speak - L K is long gone, demolition in progress within M - the wall in the background, with the towers

There is an old compound to the far left of pic 1 - these are dismantled towers, awaiting 'recyling'

Lord knows where these would have been used

Still lots of evidence as to its RAF past around this end of the prison

Dont know if these are taxiway / runway lights - the two hangars in the background will be staying as part of a museum

cell mural - over time, these have been painted over many times. Now with the damp (no heating) they are starting to show through - like ghosts from the past

THE HOSPITAL

IMGP1554tn.jpg

many a person, staff and inmate, has died within this building

IMGP1551tn.jpg

the room where negotiations for the go-od fri-day agreement with the hun-ger str-ik-ers took place

Having recently visited this site, I thought I would share an update of some photographs I took in March 2008.

[Below] Could this be one of the original prison cell doors?
