Originally plans were made and land purchased for this asylum to be built in proximity close to the existing 1st Middlesex County Asylum at Hanwell on ground that lies just on the other side of the Grand Union Canal. Perhaps the number of other asylums already in the area led to the decision to have it built elsewhere. The architect was Samuel Daukes, the design of which was based on the advice of John Conolly, the superintendent of the 1st Middlesex Asylum. It opened on the 17th of July, 1851 and was officially referred to as the 2nd Middlesex County Asylum with William Charles Hood (1824-1870) being its first medical superintendent.[2]
