EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view of Long Grove Asylum in Epsom, Surrey offers a glimpse into the history of mental health care in Edwardian England. Opened in 1907 on Horton Lane, this institution was the tenth of London's County Asylums, providing treatment for those suffering from psychiatric illnesses. In 1918, it was renamed Long Grove Mental Hospital and later shortened to just Long Grove Hospital.
The image captures the vastness of the asylum grounds, surrounded by lush groves and housing facilities. The stark contrast between the grandeur of the building and the poverty often associated with mental health patients is evident in this historical photograph.
Long Grove Hospital played a crucial role in providing medical care and treatment for individuals struggling with mental illness during a time when such conditions were stigmatized and misunderstood. The workhouses within its walls served as places of refuge for those who were marginalized by society.
As we reflect on this snapshot from the past, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of understanding and treating mental health issues. This image serves as a poignant reminder of our collective journey towards compassion and empathy for those facing challenges related to their mental well-being.
