Cane hill, easily without question the best asylum that england has to offer. Its characters and status isn't matched by anything else, in fact nothing even comes close. For several years time stood still in Cane Hill. While redevelopment plans were considered and rejected several times due to cost recently they were finally accepted. Whats to be saved?, the admin building, chapel and the water tower.
That in itself is shocking if you think of the size of the site. While other less impressive asylums have more saved and converted, why is it this one only has the bare minimum?, and only because the buildings are listed at that. I'm sure the contractors wouldn't shed a tear at demolishing it all.
Since the clock of Cane Hills life had been wound up again and was now ticking down, several explorers felt it was a good time to pay homage to a place that has greeted 100's of like minded people.
