The villa style of mental hospital, based on a number of relatively small, welcoming buildings tailored to the needs of specific groups of patients, provided a more domestic environment and the possibility of more individual attention than the large wards of 19th-century institutions. Seacliff’s replacement, Cherry Farm Hospital, which opened in 1952, used this new design. This is one of the villa buildings in the late 1950s, soon after completion.
