About this work
Description
Notes on patients kept in accordance with the Lunatics Act of 1845 (8 & 9 Vict. c.100) and subsequent legislation. These volumes were produced for inspection by the Visiting Commissioners in Lunacy and Visiting Magistrates and Medical Officer. Endorsements by these appear at the beginning and end of books, but these do not necessarily correspond with dates of entries on patients. Entries for patients frequently extend over more than one volume; a single book deals with Voluntary Boarders only (no. 40).
