Anyone know of Narlaes Road/Street in Kensington. There was an infirmary there in the late 1800's ealy 1900's. I have looked up Old London Street and googled it but with no luck. Can anyone help? Thanks Linda

The only road that I can find that could be mis read as Narlaes is Marloes Road which is still there.

Actually after googling Kensington infirmary I was taken to the victorian institutions website. Guess what? There was the Kensington Workhouse listed as being in Marloes Road. It's also on the workhouses site.Take a look for yourself at: http://users.ox.ac.uk/~peter/workhouse/index.html
