These comprise 2 items. The first is an undated early 20th century tabulated summary of numbers of types of patients, meals, bedrooms, sitting rooms, total floor space, staff, nurses, ward-maids and fires in the different parts of the Retreat main buildings. This may have been produced as a survey of the domestic and staffing arrangements of the establishment. The second is a summary of domestic staff at the Retreat, probably produced in connection with the proposal in 1913 to re-organise the domestic staff. The latter gives duties, working hours and other details of domestic staff and other incidental information eg numbers of beds, type of accommodation in the different parts of the Retreat
