Sitting down With fingers crossed. I live in a "virtually unchanged" Burgage plot and I'm still trying to find things out. It was definitely here in 1734 but I think it's earlier. 👍
I've come across that,... I've had to write out a different layout of our town because they did not use the actual house numbers. It seems they just numbered as they went along,... So eg.... If 5 houses didn't answer on day 1, they would be numbered consecutively as they did answer. I was able to work out a few from family's who still have the same businesses etc but it's a lot of cross reference. Thankfully I know the Descendants of the previous occupiers.
This is lovely, TY,💯💚💯🍀

Very good. Of note sometimes the same house can have a different number in the 1901 census compared to the 1911 census.
