From 1860-1875 surgeon William Griffin was living in New Street Ledbury between the Crown & Sceptre pub and the Police station. Neither of these places exist in New Street now, so I wonder if it's possible to identify the precise location. Any ideas?

Have you tried the local library? They might have an old town directory or something similar. Sometimes the directories were published annually and I think they were organised by street.

I had a look for the modern police station - it's on Worcester Road - but that's probably not much help.
