Eerie pictures show the condition of the abandoned St Joseph’s Orphanage before it all went up in flames….
… services rushed to the building on Mount Street after a fire spread through the historic building on Friday night (May 13)…
No injuries were reported…
A urban explorer, who goes under the name of Lost Places and Forgotten Faces, visited the derelict building in January 2021… and took the opportunity to take some images.
… One picture shows old mattresses piled high and broken wheelchairs located in various rooms in the building – one of which is placed next to a pair of slippers.
