Ipsden Ward
Today I will show you another photo from Fairmile Hospital which I have been documenting for the last three years.
Here we look at Ipsden ward with it's boarded up windows and long grass growing on the once well kept lawn. The equipment you see here is from the guys who were clearing the asbestos out from the place.
Two years later the place had taken on a new look
Now you have new homes and people once again walk the old wards and corridors. If you want to see how the place changed look at my other blog
a great transformation - love the bench
ReplyDeleteYou should see some of the art that they are putting up, I think it great
DeleteBeautiful building!

DeleteSo nice to see old buidings fixed up and used again.
ReplyDeleteIt is Linda, most of us were worried it was all going to be demolished.
DeleteThe building looks lovely now, classic.
ReplyDeleteYour right there, think my mum and dad would have been impressed as they worked there most of their lives
DeleteBeautiful buildings now! Like the little bench also!
ReplyDeleteYou know I never noticed the bench when I was taking the photo, it jumped out after.
DeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteOh Bill, this really shows the building at its best and it positively glows with rejuvenation!! YAM xx
You know I'm sure the developers would love to know that. I think it does also
DeleteIt gives me joy to see that developers have taken the time and money taken to refresh and renovate an old building, rather than demolish and build a modern building.
ReplyDeleteHelps being listed like a lot of places here but they have done it justice
DeleteWonderful transformation!
ReplyDeleteIt was Dana I don't think the people who worked there would be disappointed
DeleteWhat we've done to the world with things like asbestos...
ReplyDeleteTell me about it, does make you wonder though
