Can anyone translate this address

[Chimp]

I can get 'Lower ?????????? Street'

And also what does it say under 1861 (I take it that it says 'Day' under that.)

 

[Daft Bat]

Where was this? Town/village...

 

[Daft Bat]

Looks like Lower Garden Street... or Gorden...

 

[Chimp]

It is a baptism from 'Holy Trinity, Vauxhall Bridge Road, Middlesex'

This was their address.

I agree with Lower Garden Street.

And Innocents Day (aka Holy Innocents Day) - 28 December.

'Twas when Herod slaughtered the innocent babes in trying to kill Jesus. He ordered that all male babies under 2 be killed but Jesus, Mary and Joseph had already left the area.

Me either, it's a new one for me.

 

[Archie's Mum]

New to me as well.
I found the most horrid painting 'The Massacre of the Innocents' by Rueben's.
Although wonderful artists back then they certainly left nothing out. I found no pleasure in looking at it.

 

[Ma-dotcom]

I'd heard of it way back but didn't connect the dots either. Took it to be a day to bring in all the not yet baptised babes.

@Archie's Mum -I won't be googling for that one

Best idea I have heard all day!
