Foxhall House, St Clements Hospital

Foxhall House is an eleven bed single storey Low Secure Unit on the St Clements Hospital site in Ipswich. It forms part of the modernisation of mental health inpatient services for the Suffolk Mental Health Partnership Trust.

The new facility contains the inpatient ward and day centre in a traditional cruciform layout plan, with the main staff office and reception in a central location. This enables two separated routes into the building via a common entrance for the inpatient and day centre areas which are also connected internally for patient access. The central ward office has good all round observation and benefits form natural light from the central ‘daylight chimney’ expressed in the roof form. The corridors open out to the plan centre to increase the feeling of space and have seating areas along their length adjacent to large glazed panels looking out onto landscaped gardens. This creates intimate and informal areas to sit away from the larger communal day spaces addressing the needs of individuals.

Landscape forms an integral element of the development and will contribute greatly to the therapeutic process. It is designed to enhance the architecture and integrate it within the neighbouring areas, whilst providing an important health amenity. The inpatient ward and day centre has access to its own private secure garden.

The commission also includes the production of a development control plan for the St Clements’ site as the new low secure unit represents a rationalisation of mental health services on a site that may be developed for other uses.
