Lovely place.
Guard dog barking like crazy in the distance, but otherwise relaxed.
Very few artefacts, but lots of nice decay. The best time to visit this place would be after the rain I should think, the youd get the lovely watery reflections

"AKA, Mid Wales Asylum. Opened in 1906 and formerly known as the Brecon and Radnor Joint Asylum or Mid Wales Counties Mental Hospital. It is in echelon style (narrow arrow) and at its peak could serve 1,000 patients. However, nearer the end of its life, in 1995, this had dwindled to 168. The site was also home to the Mid and West Wales College of Nursing and Midwifery and the Powys Drugs & Alcohol Council for substance misuse.
As part of its services the hospital provided treatments for the elderly mentally ill; rehabilitation and continuing care; occupational therapy; day care facility; psychology; reflexology; physiotherapy; electro-convulsive therapy; chiropody and psychiatry."
