Ohh, that room of records was an amazing find. I live in the north west of England, once famous for its asylums. There were many people who spent most of their lives in local asylums. Although it was a safe place for some troubled people, it was also used for many who were ‘different’ from the common population at that time, some examples, women who got pregnant outside of marriage, people who were homosexual, patients with forms of dementia, types of epilepsy, or depression, learning disabilities, forms of autism.... Almost anything that wasn’t ‘commonplace’ could be used as a reason to have people admitted and once there, could be there for decades. When a local one closed (less than twenty years ago), it was frightening for some to leave the secure place that had been their home for so long and move into new accommodation.
We live in the same area, and it is sad in our opinion that people that deserved equal rights were sent to those places. I think it was right that they closed but I wish some of the impressive buildings could’ve been repurposed.. thanks for sharing
About 6-7 years ago the children's wing of the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle-upon-Tyne was being demolished. Thousands of confidential files were left in the wing probably in the hope that the demolition company would cart them away and dump them with the rubble!!! A serious lack of concern for patient confidentiality☹
Illuminating as always and well researched and filmed/edited, seeing expenditure records from 1984 very interesting and like a little time capsule of how things were then.
This came across my feed, and am I glad it did!! No better way to spend a rainy day, than doing some binge watching on a new channel I just subbed too!
Another fantastic video. Abandoned Asylams and hospitals are my favourite! Amazing to find so many patient records still there. As always great music and photos. Looking forward to the next and i will check out your web site. Cheers guys :)
Beautiful! But gosh.. I don't want to know what ppl went through here 😥 The mentally handicapped were treated so badly in those times. And many weren't mental to begin with.
I could read medical reports I study sciences and medicine histology histopathology cytology forensic pathology diagnostic medicine biomedical bone sciences ect and neuropathology

Fantastic video and finding confidential files left behind makes you wonder what they consider important to take.
Thanks once again

Finding the records of patients is so cool, I could also spend hours looking over them.
Wow this place is insane. This would be such a cool place to check out. I can’t believe all of that paperwork was still in there. Really nice video!

I just wondered if there's any old pictures. Off what it was like to work there
There must have done biopsies there as well as one off medical file said a biposy so there must be some sort off operating room there
