EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives, taken at the Metropolitan Police Medical Centre in Hendon, north west London during the 1970s, three patients are seen engrossed in a friendly game of bar billiards in a rest room. The scene exudes an air of tranquility and camaraderie, as the patients, two clad in dressing gowns and pyjamas, and one in a shirt and trousers, focus intently on their game. The room, adorned with a green billiard table, cues, balls, and pegs, is a testament to the importance of recreational activities in the healing process. The Metropolitan Police Medical Centre in Hendon, established in 1887, was a vital institution that provided medical care and support to the Metropolitan Police Force personnel and their families. The centre offered a range of services, including inpatient and outpatient care, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation. The inclusion of a billiards table in the rest room was a thoughtful touch, providing patients with an opportunity to unwind and engage in a relaxing pastime. Bar billiards, a popular variation of the game of pool, involves using a cue to hit two balls - the white cue ball and a red object ball - into pockets located at the corners of the table. The game, which originated in the late 1800s, gained significant popularity in the UK during the 1970s. The presence of mushroom-shaped balls and the use of a wooden cue add to the nostalgic charm of this photograph. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of healthcare and the role of recreational activities in the well-being of patients. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of creating a healing environment that fosters relaxation, social interaction, and a sense of normalcy for those undergoing medical treatment.
