Gathering at Hayes Point
Description
A colour photograph showing people at an event on the green space outside Hayes Point in Sully. People are watching as some young women set up to play the steel drums. A door into the building is open and has been signposted as a 'beer tent', and this can be seen in the background, to the left of the photo. The building was designed by W. A. Pite, Son and Fairweather, and originally opened as a hospital to treat patients with tuberculosis in 1936. It later became a hospital that treated patients more generally, and played a particular role in treating those who were injured during World War II; during this time it was known as Sully Hospital. In 1993 it became a psychiatric hospital, which was closed in 2001, and the building, now known as Hayes Point, has now been converted to luxury flats, with the building remaining a Grade II* listed building.
