Urania Cottage

Urania Cottage was a Magdalene asylum, in the terminology of the time, hostel or women's shelter, founded in London in 1847 by the novelist Charles Dickens and the philanthropist Angela Burdett-Coutts. The house was a reformatory, and has been called a "discreet version" of London's Magdalen House for Reception of Penitent Prostitutes. In an anonymous article published in Household Words in 1853, Dickens called it a "Home for Homeless Women".
