These photographs were taken at Aston Hall Psychiatric Hospital on Friday 25th November 2011, the last patents left in the late 90's and since then the whole site has been subject to mindless vandalism, thieves have stolen much of the ironwork gutters, the downpipes, lighting standards and any copper cabling in roof spaces, along walls and from machinery. In the shot of the large oil engine we can see that the outer casing of the electric generator has been stripped off and stolen, for its copper wire content. And in October 2011 the therapy pool suffered a massive fire which destroyed much of the roof.
