Ann Shaw ( nee Rumsey) in the grounds of Sully during a recent visit to the area.Says Ann:
"Sully hospital has been converted into upmarket apartments.
Today it's a gated community with no access allowed into the building.
However, I had a good walk around the grounds ( I just ignored the "keep out" signs) and discovered that Sully is adjoining the shore. From my ward on the third floor I had always thought it was perched on top of a cliff. It came as something of a shock to discover that the hospital was in fact next to the beach!
I was there for six months in 1960 but never went outside so I was glad to have the opportunity at last to walk around the grounds. "
