Not what you are asking for, but I found this mention of Field Place, when searching the C.A.L.M.S index for Hampshire Record Office.

Any records in an archive might have a closure restriction, which is still in place.

Hi Everybody. I am trying to find anybody who worked at the Field Place Approved Home in Milton. I would also like to hear from anybody who could direct me to the place where the records of Patients are held. Field Place is now closed, and a Hotel took its place, however even the present Hotel is soon to be demolished to make way for more housing development, so I am informed. I had a Sister who was born with many defects in the 1940's, and she was shut away in Field Place Home for medical reasons only. I have found her buriel place in New Milton, but would like to find the records of her detainment at the home, there may even be picture's of her in the records Regards Tom Toomey (The brother of) Maureen Patricia Toomey. Maureen Died aged 11 on 6/11/1954
