, showing the wings, now removed Manor House Asylum was begun by Edward Francis Tuke and his wife Mary in about 1837, who took a lease on Manor Farm House in Chiswick Lane, a late 17th-century building. It was demolished in 1896. The 9th Duke of Devonshire rented Chiswick House to the brothers Thomas Seymour and
Charles Molesworth Tuke (sons of Thomas Harrington Tuke) from 1892 to 1928, when it was home to 30-40 private patients, before he sold it to Middlesex County Council in 1929. The asylum closed in 1940. The two wings that housed the patients were demolished in 1956, as were many of the outbuildings, so little trace of the asylum remains today. ==Notable patients==
