Hi David

I just created a place for Strathallan  however its address was 57 Robinson Road. Could you please merge these two places

thanks

Thanks

From reading the gazette the implication is that there were no pre 1900 numbers on Robinson Road, just names. Have you found any evidence (jurors lists etc) that Houses on Robinson were numbered prior to 1900?

Interesting - I haven't looked to see if there were any pre-1900 numbers before. I'll take a closer look when my files are restored.

I took a look at a map of the area from 1897 (UK National Archive ref: MPHH 1/412), which shows the buildings were numbered, starting from Stonehenge at number 1. I think Strathallen was number 15 at that time, though the map just has a number without any building name.
