I think it could be Bowman's Row:

Have a look here, showing Workington:

Hi Carol

Please could you give me a clue as to where on that map Bowman's Row is marked? I'm going crosseyed and still can't see it. (this getting old lark is no fun at all!)

I didn't say that I had found it, I'm guessing  ;D ;D ;D I didn't have the time to look.  :-[

Ok, I'll cancel the appointment with Specsavers then :-)

I can't see a Bowman's Row on that map, even Finkle Street isn't named on that one, though I can find Finkle Street on a later NLS map and its still in existence on modern day maps.

I thought Carol had actually found it as well!

There are detailed 1860-ish maps of Workington here https://www.rootschat.com/links/01rjo/   I can find Finkle Street, but no sign of the mystery place.

I should have made it more clear that I was just offering an opinion. I found Finkle Street too, but couldn't find Bowman's whateveritis.
Maybe a more detailed map is needed. If you don't find it Jen, then it's not there  ;D

Flattery will get you everywhere  ;D

Like everyone else so far I’m drawing a blank on this one.
