The numbers don't appear to go that far. Highest is 62 with some house names. Any idea of persons who may be living there?

What document do you have with that address on it?

Is it dated very close to when the 1891 census was taken?

Thank you Andy and Glitter Baby

I Know someone who lived there and have managed to find the 1911 and 1901. Just wondered if the house had been built then.

Problem with researching property is that streets get renumbered and even renamed over the 100+ years

Have you tried to find the people from 1901 on the 1891 census or perhaps some of the neighbours

The road doesn't seem to appear in the 1881 census, so could be it was being built at the time.
