Number 3 stanmore Hill just above the corner with Lumley Road, and the larger number 1 that's a pizza parlour.Its a small triangle of maybe 100 square feet?I don't know if it started out as all one house but now it's seemingly number 3 next to number one!! It looks to be a blind back house with a side door!!Any google streetview genius's that can bring the image up?Any census masterminds that can equally bring up "who lived in a house like this"For the enamel signs enthusiasts just above is the iron gate of the allotments with an old sign proclaiming the 1922 allotments act!

The 1911 map seems to show it as one property.The 1908 Directory shows numbers 1 & 3 but one occupier.Hope I have got this correct

Built between 1890 and 1910 as it does not appear on 1890 OS map but does on the 1910.

I cannot find Stanmore Hill in the 1901 census & in the 1911 census it is the only property recorded on Stanmore Hill. Looking at the 1910 map it is easy to see whyhttp://tinyurl.com/bpz5hpa
