To Gillian Taylor: Found it, thanks....what a great resource! FYI; Esher street used to cross between Vincent Street and Page Street. |

Try the map on this website: http://www(.)motco(.)com/map/81006/ - a very large scale map of London from 1862. You can search on names ending "Street" or "Road" (you have to buy the CD to find "terraces", "places" etc.) Gill |

This is the address for lost London streets http://members(.)aol(.)com/WHall95037/london.html Don't forget to remove the brackets first! There was an Esher Street in Kennington - now called Aveline Street. Bit far from Westminster though! Sue |

I can't remember how I found it but there is a site with "lost London Streets" listed on it. I was trolling around on google somewhere. Try typing in maps to starts with and see what that gets you, then refine it down to london streets. |

It seems one of my ancestors was born in Esher Street Westminster in 1869. My current A to Z does not have a street of this name. Apart from the possibility that I can`t read the birth certificate properly, how would I find if a street of this name did once exist? |
