Section entitled ‘Ballads’[edit]

Unfortunately this section contains no suitably relevant content.

It is true that in the 19th century a number of broadside ballads were printed in England which mention ‘the lock hospital’. However, nothing in this section links these songs with the Westmorland lock hospital.

The content seems confusingly presented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kate Mash (talk • contribs) 16:55, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder whether this section of the article might be better removed.

Agreed. There are various lock hospitals and none of the material currently presented is specific to the Westmoreland Lock Hospital. Dormskirk (talk) 18:03, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
