This first series of photographs was taken in March 1999.  There really aren't many easily identifiable bits left apart from the front entrance, a few windows and the boiler house chimney.  The Gym still survives and so too, does the observatory.  I couldn't get inside (it was a Sunday) so there are no interior shots.  I rather doubt that there will be anything recognisable inside.
I took 2 cameras - a little Casio QV10a which takes rather low quality 72dpi images and a Kodak 210, which takes much better shots.
The thumbnails are from the Kodak - if you click on them you'll see a full size image in this window, but beware - they are fairly large, so may take some time to load. To download a photograph, click your right mouse button on any image (the big ones, not these thumbnails) and select "save image as..." or similar instruction from the sub menu. Use the "Back" button on the page to return to this page.
