Exhall lodge

[fastfusion]

it looks like his birth certificate reference is

  Birmingham  6d240 March (1st quarter) 1867


and his marriage is  December (4th quarter) 1890   Aston 6d752

to Agnes Irving or Mary Roots......

but there is another marriage at Atherstone  in 2nd quarter (June 1896   6d791)
to  a Rhoda Mitchell or a Fanny Tomes

so one of those marriages is yours  ....

Just at the top-right of centre of the hyperlink map is the Exhall Isolation Hospital. Closed by the late 1940s. It now has a small housing estate on the site.
Never overly used, it was intended from ~1910s to be a place for tuberculosis patients to go. It was known as The Lodge. During the mid 30s it became an 'Institution' for, well, let's be honest, at this time in history, hiding mentally ill people.
This particular area has seen huge changes in 100 years, from rural fields to one of the largest coal mines in the area, dereliction until late 1990s and now a relatively nice place again. The boundary between Nuneaton and Coventry runs through here, so you have one street with bin day on Thursday (Cov), the next it is Friday, (Nuneaton). Might answer the question of why the death certificate was not what you expected??
