Shelves aren't the only things that come from Taunton asylum. Photographer Jeremy Harris tells me: My friends and I spent days in the place before it was torn down, and have many artifacts in our collections. I personally have patient records, hand written log books, skeleton keys, and a portable shock therapy machine. All from Taunton.
He's done an entire series of beautiful shots inside Taunton and other asylums. Here are a selection.

Echoes of lost minds....beautifully captured.
These are incredible photos! Thanks for sharing, Camilla
Thank you for putting a spotlight on the amazing, evocative work of photographer Jeremy Harris. I have known him since he bought his first camera (too many years ago too mention). When I saw your "new" shelving from Taunton, I suggested Jeremy reach out to you. I love the serendipity!

Amazing pictures! Thank You for sharing these with us!
thank you so much for this. I found these images so moving. the stillness and peace with so many voices held in the air x
Told you it was creepy....
dang, these photographs are beautifully stoic. i'll definitely look at more of jeremy's work now.
I dunno why but a lot of these pictures creep me out. Maybe because some of these pictures are taken asylums. The pictures do have artistic merit though.
