這裡曾是 Medfield State Hospital 的後院,這座醫院於1892年成立,最初名為 Medfield Insane Asylum,是麻薩諸塞州首個專門收治慢性精神病患的機構。醫院在2003年關閉後,建築被封閉。如今雖然這個場地已被修復,但後院的球場鐵網已經生鏽,球場上的線條逐漸消失在雜草和積雪之中。在冬日的陽光下,鐵網在這裡靜靜地佇立著,守護著那些被遺忘的故事。
This was once the backyard of Medfield State Hospital, established in 1892 as the Medfield Insane Asylum, the first facility in Massachusetts dedicated to chronic mental patients. After the hospital closed in 2003, the buildings were sealed off. Although the grounds have since been restored, the backyard court’s iron fence has rusted, and the field lines have gradually disappeared under weeds and snow. In the winter sunlight, the fence stands silently, guarding those forgotten stories.
