Title: The Bradstock Lockett Home, Southport
Date: Around 1908
Location: Bradstock Lockett Hospital Home And School Of Recovery, Southport
Creator: Unknown, taken from Liverpool Diocese Annual Report, December 1908, back cover
Description: The Liverpool Diocese administered its own fund for the homes. Part of this was the Silver Thimble League - which raised money for the Bradstock Lockett Home. In 1908 they had a balance of one thousand and twenty-eight pounds twelve shillings and ninepence raised for the home through the League. Costs could mount up unexpectedly, as the upkeep of Bradstock's pony in 1908 cost them thirteen pounds thirteen shillings and sixpence!
