Dreadful history
This morning I walked with my U3A group around the Hillmorton area. We stopped to look at some relics of the dreadfully named Sunnyside lunatic asylum which opened in 1863. See this website for information. https://my.christchurchcitylibraries.com/sunnyside-hospital/#:~:text=Sunnyside%20Hospital%2C%20Christchurch's%20first%20mental,a%20Ng%C4%81i%20Tahu%20housing%20development.
Fortunately the name and conditions have changed dramatically since then.
