I definitely like Westley, I was thinking it was 'something' 'man' Bury, but can now see Curate of Westley 'near' Bury.

Still cannot see the significance of what appears to be 'blank' in the address, I would have thought that if there was no number, then it would have been just Out NorthGate.
Presumably from the 'people' living ther he was running an orphanage.

Agree, he was Curate of Westley, near Bury (St. Edmunds)
Nina
meant Out North Gate
