Sully Hospital

Sully Hospital was a psychiatric hospital in Sully, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. It has since been converted into luxury apartments and remains a Grade II* listed building.
The classical and elegant Art Deco structure was designed by the firm of William Pite, Son and Fairweathers who had won an open competition to design the new building in 1931. Established by the King Edward VII Welsh National Memorial Association "for the intensive investigation of observation cases and for the treatment by modern methods of chronic and advanced pulmonary disease", it was built between 1932 and 1936 and officially opened by Prince George, Duke of Kent as a specialist tuberculosis facility in 1936. It is described in the Glamorgan volume of Nikolaus Pevsner's 'The Buildings of Wales' as "An outstanding example of inter-war architecture, which has survived almost unaltered" and is considered to be the finest representation of Modernist sanatoriums in Britain and one of the last great Modernist landmarks remaining in the whole of Wales. The design is similar to Alvar Aalto's Paimio Sanatorium in Finland, which was completed only three years earlier. As at Paimio, the use of a concrete structural frame enabled the use of wide windows, proving the patients with sunlight, fresh air and views.
