The above image is taken looking across the semi-circular corridor at H & I wards. Typical of Long Grove was the band of black brickwork that seemed to accentuate its institutional feeling. (This picture courtesy of Urbex)
Another picture showing the yard area of one of the wards. Now very overgorwn the once immacuate lawns are run to seed. The bay widows marked the line of the gallery and at the end one can just see the jutting of the ground floor lounge area. Immediately behind the photographer would have been the walls of the adjacent ward forming the second side of a large traingular space. The central gazebo is now either gone or hidden by the trees.
Both of these pictures were taken several years after the hospital closed.
