Skywatch 21st April

I took this picture whilst we were walking to a hospital appointment last week.  The hospital has recently moved into brand new purpose built premises which are all nice and sparkling and whilst lots of the old hospital buildings will be demolished at some point there are parts which are listed and have to stay.  I really hope this bell tower is part of the listed section but if not I photographed it for prosperity.

My son has had very regular orthodontic appointments for a long time (at least once a month most months for years) and in the old department the bell tower was one of the things we could see out of the waiting room window.  From the surgery window there were some very tall and I'm assuming very old trees which were mesmerising when they blew in the wind and I often watched them to while away the time waiting for a broken brace to be fixed or adjustment to be made.  Now the view is frosted so very very boring.

How short sighted of the hospital not to have though of the view. A pleasant view can distract and relieve anxiety.
