I don't know who keeps calling Redhill 'Deadhill' but I have lived here all my life and never come across the expression. Please stop changing it back or at least provide some sources.
[edit] Deadhill
Haven't seen it documented anywhere properly, but have heard it mentioned around and about - if you google "Redhill Deadhill" 256 pages come up. Maybe they're not all related, but who's going to trawl through 256 pages about Redhill, particularly if they're as moribund and depressing as they usually are? It's not the best place on earth, but it's far from the worst. Milkybarnick 23:42, 6 November 2006 (UTC)milkybarnick

[edit] Royal Earlswood Hospital
Although today it is politically correct to refer to this as a place for people with learning disabilities, seeing as it is no longer in existence, I think it is acceptable to refer to it as it was known as at the time. Also, there is a difference between psychosis and learning disabilities, even if those terms are widely misused nowadays. Southeastern 23:56, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
