The Warneford Hospital is a hospital in east Oxford, England. The Warneford and Littlemore Mental Health Centre are the major mental health hospitals serving Oxford. The hospital opened as the ''Oxford Lunatic Asylum'' in July 1826 and subsequently (but no longer) was named the ''Radcliffe Lunatic Asylum'' and then the ''Warneford Lunatic Asylum''. It was designed by Richard Ingleman (1777–1838) and built of Headington stone. The name commemorates the philanthropist Samuel Wilson Warneford. The hospital is in the suburb of Headington, east of Oxford city centre. It is located on Warneford Lane, which runs between Morrell Avenue and Old Road. It was the first hospital to be based in east Oxford. Almost all of the major Oxford hospitals are now based in Headington. Warneford Hospital is extensively mentioned in the book ''Dark Clouds Gather'' by Katy Sara Culling about mental illness. ==See also== * List of hospitals in England * Warneford Meadow 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「Warneford Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
