A talk by Pauline Hurst
A history of this little known Lodge, and how a scandal of the treatment of patients in the 1840’s changed the way mental health patients would be treated in the future. It was later developed into a residential home by the mid 1900’s.
Research has been taken from local archives, newspapers and previously unseen photographs from staff working at the residential home before it closed in 1970. Pauline is a member of the St Helens Family History Society.
