Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Help with reading abode in burial entries

Bookbox,
you bring to mind the two doctors who covered five villages in the area where I was born.  Who managed a morning and evening surgery, seeing everyone that day.  Now we have more doctors in the surgeries, but, with a two to three week wait to see one of them, who spends the whole consultation staring at a monitor, and then refers you to the hospital.

Bring back the village GP's who knew and treated their patients.

Bayswater Road, Chapeltown, fits perfectly.

Thank you both for your suggestions.

Victoria Square does look correct, however, I cannot locate the square or street on a Oulton map for that period.  Admitted not all streets/roads are annotated.

I cannot locate a Bagshaw or sound alike road or street in Chapleltown.

Good morning,

I am not able to read the place of abode on two entries in the St John's Church, Oulton, Leeds Burial register 1899.

The place of abode in entry 1405, which probably begins with Vi... Also place of abode in entry 1413 begining 68, Bags?  Rd.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Janet

Thank you for your input Ayashi,

Amongst the alternative spellings considered and sought were, Lalley, Lolley, Lawley and Lowley, etc., but none of these options met the criteria.
