Administrative / biographical background: |
The site and buildings of St Audry's were formerly those of the House of Industry for the Loes and Wilford Hundreds Incorporation from 1765 to 1827, when the parishes were disincorporated. It then became the Suffolk County Asylum, in 1907 the Suffolk District Asylum and, from 1916, St Audry's Hospital for Mental Diseases and finally part of the East Suffolk Health Authority. The records in this collection are those which were held and cared for by the St Audry's Hosptal Museum, but have now been deposited under the terms of the Public Records Act, 1958. |
