Hi,
My G.Grandfather Thomas Henry Wood EMBERSON died at 48 Wood Street, in
1936 I am assuming that it was part of the Hospital (St Johns) as he
died in respect of Lung problems (Emphysema). Maybe it was like a
hospice. I am intrigued to find out what it was.

Will keep you on file and let you know when I go over there to have a
wander and look.
