History
The hospital, which was designed by Thomas Worthington and John Augustus Cory using a Corridor Plan layout, opened as the Cumberland and Westmorland Lunatic Asylum in January 1862.[1] It joined the National Health Service as Garlands Hospital in 1948.[1] Concerns were raised in Parliament about the amount of overcrowding in the hospital in 1955.[2]
After the introduction of Care in the Community in the early 1980s, the hospital went into a period of decline and closed in March 1999.[1] The administration block was subsequently converted into apartments.[1]
