This unique project undertaken by London Metropolitan Archives and funded by the Wellcome Trust – maybe one of the deepest dives into a medical institution’s records – reveals as much about the changing times as it does about the work of the two clinics and provides a fascinating insight into the evolving mental health landscape in the 20th century.
