Severalls mental hospital
Posted on 16. Sep, 2005 by Cassandra in Streetflava
From a website called Abandoned Britain, which features photographs of decaying buildings around the UK.
The shots which really caught our imagination are these ones of the Severalls mental hospital.
Severalls was built in 1913, housing around
2000 patients at its height. During the first half of its life Severalls bore
witness to its share of Questionable practices. Psychiatrists were free to
"experiment" with new treatments on patients seemingly at will, These
practices reached their climax during the 1950′s.
Hectic…it’s almost as if we were actually there at one time.

Severalls Mental Hospital
Wow, check this out. Courtesy of CherryFlava’s post CherryFlava posted that they found it creepy. Odd, isn’t it, that abandoned buildings, particularly mental hospitals, give us the creeps. I think it’s because of the things that we could imagine went

hey, if you like urban exploration you should try this website, http://www.opacity.us,its full of photos…not crappy ones artistic ones of old hospitals, corectional facilities, factories etc etc and lots of interesting infomation on equiptment that was used. severalls should be respected and left as it was, horrible things to people in there, leave the building as you saw it.

I went there today… it wasnt scary, or creepy… in many ways it was sad, the place felt empty and forgotten
