Cheers to Progress - Celebrating the Topping Out Ceremony at Mayday Hospital
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by A© Historic England Archive, a group of jubilant individuals gather on the rooftop of the services block at Mayday Hospital in West Thornton, Croydon. With celebratory drinks in hand, they commemorate an important milestone - the topping out ceremony. Mayday Hospital's redevelopment project was awarded to Laings Southern Region as part of a multi-million pound five-phase initiative. The first phase involved constructing a new three-storey surgical block and service block, which would be connected to the main hospital complex by a bridge. As if destined for symbolism, the topping out ceremony took place on May Day itself. During this momentous occasion, Denis Sweaney was presented with an engraved silver trowel by Frank Bryer, joint managing director of the Construction Company. This gesture symbolized their dedication and craftsmanship that contributed to reaching this significant stage in construction. Adding further significance to the event was the release of "Template" marking its debut as part of a series of printed information leaflets created by the commissioning team. This inaugural edition provided detailed insights into the topping out ceremony and offered readers a floor-by-floor diagram showcasing all-new facilities. This remarkable photograph encapsulates both celebration and progress as it immortalizes an important chapter in Mayday Hospital's transformation journey towards providing enhanced healthcare services for Greater London's community.
