This is a new podcast that was recorded during Heritage Month 2016 in the Ladies Cottage in the area owned by Haydn and Penny Pearce. Heather explains about the most complete collection found on the site so far. The collection owned by the Pearce’s and cataloged by the archaeology team dates before 1940 and is a wonderful expression of one of the patients who collected not only her own things but other people’s letters and items of clothing. She tells an amazing story through her embroidery skills on each item of material. Some of these have been mapped and are issues of the day and within the hospital, such as the brands of tea used or longed for, the chocolate wrappers and some of the letters.
