5 Oliver Rd, Ladywood In 1936

This address 5 Oliver Rd, Ladywood, is on a birth ratification.
My guess is that it's an Orphanage for boys or a mother and baby home.
The birth was Brian Leslie Mann, born 1936
Mother: Edna Mann (spinster) aged 26 years of Lee Bank Square, Lee Bank Rd.
Edna was a twin to George and darter of Minnie and Alber Mann

Any ideas of this address?
Much appreciated,
