Sorry to have to tell you that this is 13 Princes Ave Liverpool where you can find Harry in the 1911 Census.
This house is still there but looks as if it has turned into apartments. Harry was born in Lincolnshire and in the 1901 census he was at Royal Albert Edward Infirmary listed after Matron, Harry Holmes, Resident Medical Officer, Senior House Surgeon, age 26.

Hi Cathy I had a feeling that it wasn't Wigan as I can't remember seeing such a house. Problem solved<g> Well done for the research..

Hi Ron,
Have you had a look on 'Streetview'? Sadly it's gone down in the world a bit!
