Fantastic thank you SO much ......... the writing is lovely, but nigh on impossible to understand .....

The POD was 77a Highgate Hill, which I understand to be a Hospital (of sorts) in between houses?

Her MN was Whittington (as in Dick) which I believe the house/Hospital to now be called .....

77a Highgate Hill was the address of Islington Infirmary, now part of the Whittington Hospital.

WOW! That's brilliant ..... she died in a relatively new Hospital, on the site of what was a smallpox hospital ..... it's rather spooky though that her MN was Whittington .....
