Chevayur Leprosy Hospital

 


Chevayur Leprosy Hospital 1904.
I worked for a short period in this hospital in 1999. I felt the same buildings has a lots of stories to tell and smelled and strong british influence there.


LETS SEE THE PICTURES,They are taken in between 1895 to 1905. A hundred years before. But the moral and standards never reach todays..
