"Horrendous!!! Dirty, filthy, falling apart!"

About: Darlington Memorial Hospital

On arrival am.greeted by a sea of fag butts had to practically wade through! Bins overflowing with rubbish, inside hospital the corridors were littered with broken wall bumpers held together with duct tape! Noticed walking passed that the windows/framed were so filthy you could have scraped the muck off with a knife! Inside he ward, blood on.the floor from a previous patient, top of medicine cabinet was so.dirty I wrote my name in it, as was top of tv, handle of tv was disgusting, good job I packed anti-bacterial wipes with me, if you go I would suggest packing a mop, bucket amd bottle of bleach to clean the place yourself!
