There is alot of information about the asylums on the internet.Lancashire initially had three county asylums in the 1850s.Haydock was a private one opened in 1840s and closed in 1970.Apparently is was a cut price pauper's house in 1844 and charged 7/6 week to take in paupers.Another site shows it had a section for patients with bodily disorders.
