Chiswick Asylum was an asylum established by Edward Francis Tuke and his wife Mary as Manor House Asylum in Chiswick, in about 1837, and continued by his son, Thomas Harrington Tuke (1826-1888), before moving to Chiswick House in 1892 and becoming the Chiswick House Asylum, where it was run by two of Thomas Tuke's sons. Manor House Asylum was begun by Edward Francis Tuke and his wife Mary in about 1837,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://wellcomelibrary.org/collections/digital-collections/mental-healthcare/manor-house-asylum/ )〕 who took a lease on Manor Farm House in Chiswick Lane, a late 17th century building. It was demolished in 1896.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.doricdesign.com/Chiswickhistory/ch2013/pages/080-grandhouses.html )〕 The 9th Duke of Devonshire rented Chiswick House to the brothers Thomas Seymour and Charles Molesworth Tuke (sons of Thomas Harrington Tuke) from 1892 to 1928, when it was home to 30-40 private patients, before he sold it to Middlesex County Council in 1929. The two wings that housed the patients were demolished in 1956, as were many of the outbuildings, so little trace of the asylum remains today.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://museumofthemind.org.uk/blog/post/the-history-of-chiswick-house-asylum )〕 ==Notable patients== In 1852, the Chartist leader Feargus O'Connor MP was declared insane after a scene in the House of Commons, and confined to Chiswick Asylum, where he remained until 1854, and died in 1855.〔 In 1865, Rev William Cotton spent several weeks in the Manor House Asylum. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chiswick Asylum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
