  My father Dr Peter F Fletcher was the last Medical Superintendent passing away on his eve of retirement
  October 30th 1975, as his son we lived on the grounds of the hospital for many years.
  What I witnessed in those final years of the hospital under the guidance of my father was wonderful.
  The gates were opened the wards except of one were unlocked. Members of the “outside world”
  were invited for monthly luncheons and an “education”
  The” looney bin” became slowly Stanley Royd Hospital!
  My father had his burial service in the hospital chapel. It allowed the staff and patient who loved him to
  attend. It was sad but beautiful, I remember the main stained glass window, which showed the door to
  a new and life free and loving! As my father said his desire was to show the patient how to open the door
  and to just to walk through to that new life!
  Only good memories
