EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, captured by the talented photographer Damian Grady, showcases the haunting beauty of Severalls Hospital. Once known as the Second Essex County Asylum, this disused psychiatric hospital in Colchester, Essex holds a rich history within its walls. The image captures an eerie stillness that seems to hang over the sprawling complex. From above, we can see the vast expanse of buildings and grounds that once housed patients seeking solace and treatment for their mental health conditions. The architectural grandeur of Severalls Hospital is evident even from this bird's-eye view; its imposing Victorian structures stand as a testament to a bygone era. As our gaze follows the intricate patterns formed by rows upon rows of windows and rooftops, we cannot help but wonder about the countless stories that unfolded within these walls throughout its years of operation. It serves as a poignant reminder of society's evolving approach towards mental health care. Damian Grady's masterful composition allows us to appreciate both the scale and serenity surrounding this abandoned institution. The soft lighting casts long shadows across empty courtyards and overgrown gardens, adding an air of mystery to an already evocative scene. This print from Historic England invites us to reflect on our past while contemplating what lies ahead for such historic landmarks. It serves as a visual time capsule capturing not only architectural brilliance but also echoes of human experiences etched into every brick and corridor at Severalls Hospital
