Carole on the previous page it looks like East Ville Station Road, but I don't know the area at all so I can't be sure. Monica

The address at the top is East Ville Station Road, but what the actual address is for John Walker is beyond me............. Possibly Black Drive, or Block Drive, but hard to be sure. Oddly enough, the address reverts to East Ville at the top of the next page, so no help there. Reg

The second word is Drove, close by on the map their is a Black Drove and a Bull Drove, but i am not sure if it is one of these? If you go to multimap and put Midville into the search box, then select the 1:50,000 view you will see to the northwest of Midville Black Drove , and to the southeast you will see Bull Drove. also a Mere Drove Roy

Think it must be Black Drove as this is still here today' and not much been built in between, still mainly fields. It's only about a mile from Station Road in Midville, which living in these rural areas is just next door. Some places operate on flexi time in Linconshire it's flexi distances, as we found when we moved here.

Midville is a very small place their is a small street their called Station Road and Black Drove is very close by so i think that is the place you are looking for. Roy
