Please could anyone tell me where the workhouse listed on my great grandmothers birth certicate was? Screenshots attached. Would it have been this one? https://www.workhouses.org.uk/WestBromwich/ There's not enough detail on the birth cert to confirm where the workhouse was.

The family aren't registered as living in a workhouse on the 1881 or 1891 census but by 1901 and 1911 my great gran was in the Birmingham workhouse https://www.workhouses.org.uk/Birmingham/. In 1881 the family lived in Berners St, Nechells and in 1891 they lived at Brearley St, Birmingham.
