Doesn't seem to be a directory covering that time period, but did see a reference to "Kellys Directory of Gosport, Alverstoke and Fareham 1931 - 1932" which could be quite useful, unfortunately I can't find one on CD to date, has anyone seen this?

Kelly's county directories were not published every year but usually every 3 or 4 years. There seem to have been editions for Hampshire in 1920, 1923, 1924, 1927, 1931, 1935 & 1939.

They were published as Hampshire directories or combined with neighbouring counties (the 1924 edition is combined with Berkshire and is possibly a reprint of 1923).

ArchiveCDBooks do the 1920 and 1927 editions.

Thanks Newburychap, I've managed to get hold of the names of residents in the particular street I was interested in for that time period, but....the info doesn't match a report done by Gosport council, according to their report on the streets history the residents I was interested in weren't living there yet though what I've found is to the contrary, I think what would be helpful is a ordnance survey map of Gosport between 1924 - 1927 to confirm what I've found, but once again it's proving to be elusive also, so if anyone has a suggestion to locate an ordnance map in this time period it will greatly appreciated  Smiley
