Thanks for the info everyone. I wonder why the address on the census is given as 15, The Lawe?

I've just found some more info, it wasn't a hospital despite the boys being described as "patients" It was Green's Industrial School, I don't know if it was for boys who had committed some misdemeanor or a training institution or perhaps both. I'd be grateful if anyone can shed anymore lig...

Hi, I was searching the 1911 census for a great uncle and found him listed as a patient (15 year old schoolboy) The address was given as 15, The Lawe but doesn't give the name of the institution. Does anyone know what it was? Thanks
