Stafford: former Lodge of Coton Hill Asylum
149-151 Weston Road is a former lodge of the Coton Hill Asylum, built in the 1850s as a private asylum for the insane. All but the lodges and the chapel were demolished in 1976 and the new Stafford District General Hospital was built on the site. This lodge is now occupied by Age UK Stafford & District.
The chapel is now the hospital's library: see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4159813 and http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4346953.

Cycle lanes as they should NOT be
Before you ask, yes I am making a point. Although these cars seem to be parked legally they make the existence of cycles lanes pointless (another waste of Council Tax payers money). I was almost knocked off my bike whilst passing cars parked in this stretch of cycle lane - not passing these two may I add. Perhaps you get my point. Pedestrians, cyclists & horse riders have a right to use the road, motorists only have a licence to do so! Personally I would prefer to keep the cycle lanes but would also like to see them used in the proper manner.

County Hospital, Stafford: mobile breast screening service
The wording on the side of the unit coyly omits the word 'Breast', but that is what it is. It relocated to this site outside the Chapel/Library and Postgrad Centre from outside A&E in November 2015.
For a view of the chapel sans screening unit see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4159813
