Continuing
the latest batch of photos from Tony Smyth, who
writes :
"More
photos from The Black. The 'Submarine'
was a lower level room (not quite a basement but
below ground level) that was mostly disused while
I was in Blacklion so it was decided, if I recall
correctly, to turn it into some form of alternative
Rec Room."
To
clarify, Tony later wrote :
"The 'Submarine' and the Recreation Hall
were two separate rooms. The Recreation Room was,
as indicated, immediately below the Chapel and
featured the 'Mondrian Wall' , as per the photo,
but the 'Submarine' which is mentioned in the
text associated with this photo was at the north
end of the building (pretty much directly below
the main 'conference' room, where the stage was
located.) — at
an even lower level than the Recreation Room ."
