In 1901 it was Samuel Orridge aged 81. he had an Ann & Cornelius Cook as boarders

Looked up on 1901 Census.

Can't find it on 1891 but 1881 seems to have Main St however it doesn't go up to 128. Their IS a 128 mentioned but the name of the road seems to change half way along?

He had a housekeepr called Clara Roper aged 49 who had two grown up children (I assume) living there - Eliz aged 20 (charwoman) and James aged 25 (coalminer) - there was a younger daughter aged 9 called Ethel. All were born in Markfield.

There was also a boarder called Thomas Ireland aged 22 from Newtown in Leicester.
