Could anyone confirm for me that the address - Bancroft Lodge, Bancroft Road, Mile End London is the address of a workhouse?   Thank-you Elizabeth

Yes, it was.  Here's an old thread which may be of interest:

Queries of this kind are often easily answered on the Workhouse Addresses page.

Thank-you for your reply to the above.  I have just got to this branch of my family and am struggling a little.  My ancestor died at the address, so a bit more research is needed.

Many local people will have died in the workhouse infirmary having been admitted for hospital care, even if they were not workhouse inmates.
