Dismantling one of my 'brick walls'
published by RosieW on Sun, 09/02/2025 - 14:03

Hello everyone - I have a 'brick wall' which I am currently dismantling Death Certificate by Death Certificate!!

My 'brick wall' Aunt died in 1993 aged 95 - she was a long time resident of Bristol.

Her Death Certificate shows her resident at 'Inglenook' 61 South Road, Weston super Mare.

Does anyone know if the South Road address was a nursing home way back in 1993?  Google maps does not help much and the current large houses appear to be converted into flats now.  

Thank you for reading.

Rosalyn Wade.

There is an entry in the London Gazette reporting the death of a Reginald Edwards in 1974 referencing "Inglenook Convalescent home, 61 South Road, Weston-super-Mare" if that helps

Inglenook Convalescent Home before the extension was added.

I think that this building was a nursing home in 1993 as our daughter worked there as a care assistant before starting her nurse training. We also had neighbours who moved into the home, though I am not sure of the date.

I hope this helps,
