Which has now been converted into houses (including the old chapel).

Anyway, brilliantly (I think), the old underground padded cells still exist (as they were when the place was closed) and several of the houses have sealed off doors that lead to the corridors which, in turn, lead to the cells.

Surely if you owned one of those houses, you'd be exploring down and around there all the time, right?

And yes, I do realise that by taking my kids trick or treating I'm encouraging them to commit mild intimidation for future gain, thus ensuring they end up working for the government.
