The hospital records were maintained by the Ministry of Pensions after the War for administration purposes to deal with claims from wounded soldiers. In the 1930s these were destroyed, no hospital records survive for Beckett Park. Nationally a 2% sample was retained and any surviving material is held by the National Archives at reference number MH106.
