Step past the refurbished building, the lovely cut grass, the health club and restaurant and you may still find elements of the old place that still survive. Nature is taking them back, but some may still stand.

Part of an old gas works derelict and almost hidden away by trees and bushes:

Two lamp post disappearing from view. One looks to be almost totally engulfed, the other being taken over by ivy and other foliage. Both stood on roads that have now gone.

 

A give way road junction protruding from under a new path and disappearing under the fence.
Ivy slowly taking over this old electricity block building
A road ramp warning block is being taken back by nature. As you can see the road is underneath the soil and plant life.

The old original Three Counties Asylum Weigh bridge is still solid and reads:

1914, TO WEIGH 30 TON, POOLEY & SONS LTD, BIRMINGHAM LONDON, No 524

A very large deep uncovered hole that reveals cables and pipework leading off in all directions.
A chimney stack and pot protrudes through the bushes. On closer inspection this leads to a derelict room with a fireplace.
A collapsing wall that starts nowhere and leads nowhere.

In 1965 Mike O’Donovan had his photo taken at this junction. The second picture is the junction on 2009, in need of redevelopment:
