Hi, I was wondering if anybody knows - or can find out - when Back Beckwith Street was built. My ancestors lived there in 1851 but it didn't exist in 1841. I would love to visit the archives, but I am unemployed and living in Hertfordshire, so it's just an impossibility

Thanks

Back Beckwith St is not in the 1843 Mortimer & Harwood Street Directory, Beckwith St is, so, narrows it down a bit.

Payson Street

The 1911 census has Payson St recorded, Back Beckwith St still shows on the 1900 ish Map.
