EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Administration Building of Horton War Hospital in Epsom, Surrey, a historic site with a rich and complex history. Originally established in 1899 as Horton Asylum, London's seventh county asylum, the institution provided care for those in need of mental health treatment and housing during a time when poverty and social welfare were significant concerns. During the First World War, the hospital was repurposed as a military hospital, serving the wounded and sick soldiers from the front lines. Following the war, it was renamed Horton Mental Hospital. Once again, during the Second World War from 1939 to 1949, the hospital provided essential medical services to the military personnel and civilians affected by the conflict. The Administration Building, with its grand driveway and imposing facade, stands as a testament to the hospital's long and distinguished history. The building's intricate architectural details and meticulously manicured grounds reflect the dedication and commitment of those who worked there to provide the best possible care for their patients. This image brings to mind the great sacrifices made during the two World Wars and the important role that hospitals like Horton played in providing essential medical care and support to those in need. The Administration Building, with its historic significance and striking appearance, continues to be an important part of the community in Epsom and a reminder of the hospital's rich and complex history.
