Does anyone live in Rugby?
« on: Sunday 09 August 09 22:59 BST (UK) »
Does anyone live in Rugby? My great grandmother lived in Brannow or Brammer Cottage (I think - the census entry isn't very clear), Clifton Road, Rugby. I'd like to know if it still exists and if so, what the correct name is please.

Many thanks,

Hi, whilst looking for something else on the boards (like you do....) , came across this request.
Did you ever get your query resolved, and if not are you still researching this?

I live in Rugby area and could help if you could give me any other info you have.

Regards

Hi Cowboysmate,
Yes, I am still researching this. I'd love to know if Brannow or Brammer Cottage on Clifton Road still exists, and what the name actually is.
I'd really appreciate any help you can give me - thank you.

You can see Brummer Cottage on the 1887 map at https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/451110/275156/13/100360 it is next to Fairview Villas.

Yes, have just seen it via Street view myself.
If this is sufficient I take it you won't need my offer....
