Studley Street?

Hi, I found this war medal card but I'm struggling with the address. I thought it could be 11 Studley street but I cannot find any record of that street name. Any ideas please?
Thanks, Luke

There is a Studley Street in Oldham in the 1901, 1911 and 1921 censuses and the 1939 register.
Your Lot Butterworth is at number 11 in the 1939 Register !

Unless my eyesight is particularly bad
the date on your snippet appears to be 16.12.38 so the year before the 1939 Register was created.

As I posted earlier the occupant of number 11 in the 1939 Register was Lot Butterworth whose medal card that is.
