==History==
In 1772, Robert Hay Drummond, the Archbishop of York, decided along with "twenty-four Yorkshire gentlemen" to establish an asylum, called the 'County Lunatic Asylum, York'. A committee was established, and the architect John Carr was co-opted with a pledge of 25 guineas. Carr's patron, the Marquis of Rockingham, pledged 100 guineas, and a total of £2500 was subscribed. By July 1773, £5000 had been promised, and Carr's scheme to accommodate 54 patients was approved on 25 August. The building was completed in 1777. The name of the building was later changed to Bootham Park Hospital.
Criticism about the handling of inmates and the death of Hannah Mills led the local Quaker community to found, in 1790, a new asylum known as The Retreat.
The hospital owns the only known portrait of "mayor" of Garrat, Sir Jeffrey Dunstan (c.1759-1796), (artist unknown).
