Berkshire Records Office senior archivist Mark Stevens has studied, written and broadcast about the hospital, based on original records. Maybe you have already read Simon Winchester’s book ‘The Surgeon of Crowthorne’ or watched the TV film ‘Wicked Women’, or know about the painter Richard Dadd.
Mark Stevens will reveal many more interesting and unexpected details about the building, the inmates of yesteryear, their strange crimes and illnesses, and the challenges presented for patients and staff alike. And if you want to check the details afterwards, you can always read his book ‘Broadmoor Revealed!’
