Bryn y Neuadd Hospital (Welsh: Ysbyty Bryn y Neuadd) is a mental health facility in Llanfairfechan, Conwy County Borough, Wales. It is managed by the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board.
History
[edit]The hospital was established by converting a mid-19th-century Italian Gothic style mansion into a facility to care for "lunatics and idiots" in 1898.[1] The mansion, which benefited from a garden laid out by Edward Milner,[2] was demolished in 1967 and replaced with a modern facility for mentally handicapped patients which opened in 1971.[3] A medium-secure unit known as Tŷ Llywelyn was subsequently established at the hospital.[4]
The gardens and grounds by Milner are designated Grade II on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.[5]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
