Hi yes Storthes Hall was in Kirkburton is now closed and knocked down many patients were buried at Thurstonland church graveyard, any alive prior to and when it closed moved back to areas where they originated from. I trained as a nurse there and continued to work there from 1972 -1988 hope you find what you are looking for.Kirklees pct may also know where records are kept.
Also one of the nursing officers there wrote a book about Storthes Hall.

@Kaz1056 - could you email me batty007@hotmail.com I'm looking for details on someone who passed away at Storthes Hall in May 1988 (a great aunt, just wanting to know if you or any of your former collegues knew her and what she was like)

Cheers
