I've been doing a little digging around and found that before my house was built, this land it's on was an NHS Institution going back from before 1948.
Foundation Year
c1872
Closed
Yes
Closure year
1982
1948
Mental
Post 1948
Maternity, Mental, MAT: 1938 - c.1957 MNT: Mental defectives. OTHER: c.1957 - 1982 Chronic (mainly).
I wondered if whatever came through via this pendulum was something from the house itself. This house was built in 1985 so it's possibly something from the Institute Hospital not the house.
