Tooting Bec Asylum was the fourth asylum hospital to be erected by the Metropolitan Asylums Board to supplement the existing institutions at Leavesden, Caterham, and Darenth. It was intended to accommodate uncertifiable senile patients, infirm epileptics and other 'persons requiring exceptional individual attention'. In 1924 the hospital was renamed Tooting Bec Mental Hospital and became used exclusively for patients with senile dementia. It transferred to the control of the London County Council in 1930 and underwent further expansion, changing its name to Tooting Bec Hospital in 1937. The hospital closed in 1995. All the hospital buildings have now been demolished Adrodd fel Amhriodol	Dan Gregory	Tuesday 3rd of June 2014 09:28:19 PM
