Some of the streets mentioned in the description of the enumeration district apart from Vickers Street are:-

Avison Street
Windsor Street
Newton Street
Dexter Street.

Perhaps you can find one of these.

The local library for the area might have old maps.

I've bought a lot of old Ordnance maps over the years from at £2.25 each theyre very good value. They cover most areas of Britain, are in amazing detail, show every building incl pubs, and streets . As far as I know, most of them cover the period 1900 to 1925. But online you will see their complete range.

You will have to pay but try "old-maps.co.uk" Just had a look, I,m sure it's there in 1927

Have you looked at the enumerator sheet - as that will give you the surrounding streets - then you might be able to find those on a modern map.
