14 Liff Road, Dundee

Can anyone tell me what 14 Liff Road, Dundee might have been in 1874.  One of my ancestors has that as her address.  She died of typhoid.  She was a domestic servant and the informant was a cousin and inmate.  Does inmate just mean he was a lodger of where she stayed or worked.

Any help would be great.

Thanks for that.  I was thinking along the same lines of a hospital.

Thanks for your time

Hi,

there was a Liff Hospital, but that was not on Liff Road. I think 14 Liff Road is a genuine address and it still is.

Thanks for that.  Do you know if the Valuation Rolls are available in the Library in Dundee.

Thanks
