Agdam Rayon, Azerbaijan

Agdam, the capital of Agdam Rayon, is a ghost town in the southwestern part of Azerbaijan. In July 1993, after heavy fighting, Agdam was captured by the forces of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic during its 1993 summer offensives. As the town fell, its entire population were forced to flee eastwards. Many Azerbaijanis were killed by Armenian soldiers, and many Armenians were killed by Azerbaijani soldiers. In the immediate aftermath of the fighting, the Armenian forces decided to destroy parts of Agdam to prevent its recapture by Azerbaijan More damage occurred in the following decades when the deserted town was looted for building materials. Agdam is currently a ruinous, uninhabited ghost town.[10] The town's large mosque also survives in bad condition.

North Brother island, New York, USA

Inside the lost island of New York: Eerie pictures of the abandoned leper colony just 350 yards from the Bronx

Stairwells strewn with debris and walls crumbling slowly to dust, it is the island that New York forgot for 50 years.
Now, in a series of extraordinarily eerie pictures, the lost world of North Brother - quarantine zone, leper colony and centre for drug addicts - has been brought back to life.
It is hard to believe that these echoing corridors and abandoned halls were home to hundreds of patients - or that a criss-cross of tree-lined avenues were once roads.
But the haunting quality of these pictures makes it easy to imagine that it was a place of indescribable misery, which one inmate compared to the notorious black hole of Calcutta.


Lost world: An iron spiral staircase shoots up through crumbling floorboards at the hospital (left). The main staircase in the western wing of the nurses building (right) is littered with leaves and crumbling debris


Eerie: The skeletal remains of chairs lie on the floor in a small auditorium in the school and services building


Snowbound: The window has fallen out of the wall in this science classroom in the school (left) while tiles cling to a long-abandoned bathtub (right), one of two in the western wing of the tuberculosis pavilion


Misplaced: The altarpiece from the chapel was moved to a maintenance building before the island was abandoned where it still sits on a table

Closed in 1963, it is now a haunting labyrinth of crumbling ruins.Protected birds are its only inhabitants and the waters around the island are patrolled by armed coastguards who ensure the sanctity of the former quarantine zone is never violated
Meanwhile, the hospital, staff and patient quarters and forced drug rehabilitation centres are slowly reverting to nature.
These pictures were taken by local historian and photographer Ian Ference who was given unprecedented access to the site. He has slowly pieced together the forgotten story of this unique landscape.
This has got to be one of America's most important places to visit,' he said. 'Historically it has had a notorious and sometimes sinister reputation.
'It was established as a forced quarantine camp for people suffering from infectious and often fatal diseases such as typhoid, scarlet fever, yellow fever and typhus. There were six people suffering from leprosy confined here in wooden huts.


Back to nature: The main road running north to south through the island is hidden below a thick layer of undergrowth. To the right are the nurses' residence and doctors' cottage and to the left are the maintenance building and tennis courts


The first floor of the tuberculosis pavilion contained a fufully functional medical facility, including three x-ray stations (left): Each dormitory room inside the nurses' building contained a small sink and shelving unit (right)


Wilderness: The island is still off limits and is inhabited only by birds since it was closed in 1963


Ghost town: A road leads between the morgue to the right and the physical plant and coal house to the left (left) while in the boys' dormitory most of the books were cast-offs from Queens Public Library


Home: The accommodation for medical staff was limited, including this physician's bedroom inside the doctors' cottage


Ravages of time: In many places, including the nurses'  building (left), the floor is  thick with rubble. However, in a third floor of the northern wing of the doctors' building, a room is surprisingly intact


Workhouse: Heavy-duty machinery was left to rot inside the maintenance building when the island was abandoned in 1963


Overgrown: The front of the tuberculosis building can be glimpsed through a tangle of bushes and trees


Relic: The examination table in the morgue was left behind. Other pieces of equipment, including the autopsy table, have been removed


Day-to-day life: A stores ledger lies open on the last entry in the physicians' cottage (left) while the facade of the building which once housed the colony's nurses is almost covered by foliage


Fit for purpose: The gymnasium was added to the school and services building in the 1950s in the hopes that athleticism could help overcome addiction





Power source: A view of the coal house where much of the roof is gone and fallen rafters are strewn across the floor


As it was: North Brother Island circa 1937
