8) West Middlesex Hospital, Twickenham Road, Isleworth

In 1834 as a consequence of national legislation several parishes combined to form the Brentford Poor Law Union which built a large work-house in Isleworth (now incorporated into the West Middlesex Hospital).

From 1837 Layton was a member of the Board of Guardians in charge of poor relief and by 1841 one of the three Guardians of the Brentford Union. It is this board which helped build Brentford Union Infirmary in 1894

This is a page from one of Layton’s diaries from 26 April, 1848, which is full of his criticism of his fellow Guardians. Layton writes, "Mr Allen exhibited his usual talents for fencing with any question connected with his duty."

Later on Layton was also concerned about his hearing. Having lost it following an illness, he was worried that he would not be able to do his job properly.

Layton's business partner and friend, Benjamin Hardy (seen in this photo) served as Chairman of the Board of Guardians for many years.
