[quotenick="drapesy"]The pub right at the south edge of your map (corner of Meadow Road and Dewsbury Road) was the'White House' -which survived to the 1960's. (it isnt white - unlike the 'Red House'!!!!)So the Red House was white, was it? So why wasn't that called the White House, and the White House, which was red, by the looks of it, should have been the Red House? That would have stopped any confusion, wouldn't it? Or have I read red when you meant to wite white? To be honest. if Red Houses are right white, while White Houses are right red, I, for one, am going to get very confused!
