You haven’t really given enough information to find the whereabouts of this place, but I stumbled upon this:

Where did you get this place name from?
Have you found anyone (your family?) living there in the 1901 or 1911 census?

Thank you for that
The only information I have is that my Uncle, who was killed in WW1 , on one of his records was noted that he was a kennel boy at Henwood Kennels Suffolk.

I see. Presumably he was from Bury St Edmunds which is why you think the kennels may have been located around that area?

If someone who has a subscription to Find my Past could check to see if that comes up as an address on the censuses, that would be helpful. We can then have a shot at trying to find it on a map.  :)

Do you have him and his family in the censuses? Can you give us his name and other details so we can have a look for him ourselves?
