In 1911 the gardener is listed as being in Ellenboro (sic) Lodge, of 4 rooms. This is probably what is meant in the 1891 census as you can see the lodge on the map at https://www.old-maps.co.uk/index.html#/Map/522272/175129/12/100682

Thank you Stan,

The site won’t let me see the image unless I subscribe. I’ll see if I can find it on another map, or I may have to consider starting a subscription.

Yes it will just change the zoom level with the - in the top left corner, I don't subscribe either.

Oh, i’ll have a closer look, thank you.
It might be easier if I do it on a ‘proper’ computer, instead of my iPhone.

Thank you for your help.

This is the original entrance to Ellenborough House, from Google Street View https://goo.gl/maps/Z1vEyqCB2Zt the lodge was on the left.
