This building, now luxury apartments, was formerly known as Horton Manor. In 1899 it became the centre of an asylum for the mentally ill, and was later used as a certified institution for the mentally handicapped. It closed in 1996 and has since been incorporated into a housing development that covers most of this grid square.
