20th century psychiatric care
Netherne Hospital opened in 1903 as a pleasant asylum for psychiatric patients. Complex could house up to 2000 patients at its peak and its founders built its own laundry, power station, sewage works, farm and sporting facilities. It closed in 1994 following the community integration of most of its patients.
