I worked at Cranage Hall Hospital for 14 years, up to its closure. If you want to know anything and I can help you I will reply in private.

Hello, Nanabanjo
Will this question qualify as my third post, I would like to contact you with a question about my Uncle, Wilfred Day who was a patient at Cranage up to his death in 1990.

Hello, I was wondering if you could help? My great great uncle was placed into the asylum at a young age.. And wasn't released til it closed and he was 60. His name was Gilbert Montague or possibly Aldridge ... I'm trying to trace back in my family to look for signs of autism. Many thanks in advance.

Hello all.

I have just looked at the 1939 register trying to find my relatives at the outbreak of ww2
. My grandmother gladys moss (whittaker) was a patient in cranage hall in 1939. The family story goes that my great grandfather remarried after my great grandmothers death and his new wife didn't like my grandmother so sent her off to an institution.
 We always thought this was parkside in Macclesfield.
Anyway apart from a slight lisp i dont think there was anything wrong with gladys. On the 1939 register it says that she was mentaly defective and unfit for work although she became a nurse in the 1940's and married my grandfather.

For anyone who's interested i have a list of patients (all woman) in 1939 and a list of the staff.

Regards Mark
