Merrifield Children’s Unit (also known as Merryfield or Merrifields) was a residential children’s and adolescents’ psychiatric institution in the grounds of Tone Vale Hospital (an adult mental hospital) approximately north west of Norton Fitzwarren, near Taunton, Somerset, England, in what is now the village Cotford St Luke.〔(County Asylums )〕 ==History== The Merrifield Unit was established by psychiatrist Dr Martin Frank (known as 'Jim') Bethell (''d.'' 1982) as a regional unit for the treatment of young people. By November 1961, it was catering for 36 'psychotic and maladjusted' children.〔(Psychotic and Maladjusted Children (Hansard, 29 November 1961) )〕 In the mid-1970s, the Merrifield buildings were upgraded, and a substantial new extension was opened in March 1976 by Sir Desmond Pond.〔 The Unit served the whole of South West England, and for much of its existence its management was under the control of Dr Bethell and nursing officer Donald Mackey.〔Hinton, David, & Clarke, Fred. (Eds.). (1997). ''The Tone Vale story: a century of care''. Bishop's Lydeard: Rocket Publishing. p. 43. ISBN 1-899995-05-6〕 Other child psychiatry specialists associated with Merrifield included Dr Adriaan Bakker〔http://pb.rcpsych.org/cgi/reprint/8/6/NP.pdf〕 and Dr Frank Bayley.〔Elsevier Heath Sciences.
