Minffordd Cottage Hospital is a small isolation hospital built in the aftermath of the 1882 Bangor typhoid epidemic. There were a total of 42 fatalities, and source was eventually found to be bacteria transferred in water and milk from a local farm, situated above Bangor's water supply.
The hospital was finally abandoned in 2009, having functioned as a hospital for the mentally infirm in its final years.
These photographs, taken in April 2017, showcase the buildings as they stand today.
Inspiration for the framing of the shots came from the 1975 New Topographics exhibition.

Mr and Mrs Ward, 6th Viscount of the Ward family, in front of paintings of his ancestors. On the event of the death of the 6th Viscount in 1950, the entire house and estate of Castleward, Co Down, Ireland, were given in lieu of death duties to the Government of Northern Ireland, who presented the house and its gardens to the National Trust in 1952.

They say one should not repeat an action again and again expecting a changed result. "They" are correct, I never get what I see!

Ward Colorado semi ghost town
Named after Calvin Ward, this town was one of the richest in the state of Colorado. One mine is said to have produced over 2 million ounces of silver alone. Calvin located the first claim in 1860, and the boom came the next year when the Columbia vein was located. The population varied over the next 40 years from 400 to about a thousand and sometimes more. The first train was built into the area in 1898 and it came from Boulder. As ore became easier to ship out of the town more people came in and soon there were 250 people a day riding the train to and from Ward. In 1901, a devastating fire leveled 50 buildings, but being a sturdy camp, Ward was immediately rebuilt. Today there are still people living in Ward and it is said there is enough gold under the town to warrant razing the buildings and mining it out.
For those who like high altitude ghost towns, Ward is the place to go. Located on highway 160 northwest of Denver at an elevation of over 9,000 feet, you will see a town twice ravaged by fire. The first destroyed the sawmill before it had a chance to produce any lumber. It was re-built immediately and produced lumber with which miners houses and stores were built. By 1867, some two hundred people called Ward home. The town was flourishing in the early '90s and had a population of around 600. In 1897, the railroad was brought into Ward from Boulder. The route was known as the Whiplash and Switzerland Trail as it climbed 4,100 feet over twenty-six miles to the elevation of 9,450 feet. There were a number of high producing mines in Ward, the most prominent being the Columbia Mine which produced $5 million in ore during its prime. At the turn of the century, the second fire nearly destroyed the entire town. Despite the fire and the lapse of time since, Ward is still a ghost town of much interest to visitors.
41 per cent of households in Hamilton's ward three have total annual incomes of less than $30,000 dollars. The lady in the foreground was struggling across the street to get to the Kingsway which provides free meals for the homeless and destitute. When she got there she found that it was closed for renovations. Shot with an Olympus Om-1 and Zuiko 28mm lens. Tri-x 400 pushed to 800 and stand developed in Blazinal. F8 @ 1/250 sec.
Coming together now, albeit slowly as and when opportunity permits is 'our' prototype Ward Dalesman. With all panels deemed as requiring replacement made and fitted and most lengths of stainless moulding removed, it was time for a quick trip to the paintshop for a flash-over in it's base coat. The paintshop however, rather exuberantly not only painted the already black front bumper cream ... but also the chrome air horns!
