Denham? Street, Leicester

[alisontoon]

Hi,

Does anyone know where Denham Street was, in Leicester? I have a family of Frosts (father John, mother Elizabeth, daughter Sarah, (grand)son Richard and grandson William) living there in 1851, but cannot locate the street.  I think it was in the Wharf Street area, going by family relationships, but can't find it on maps.

Any suggestions?  :-)

Thank you :-)

Denham Street ran off Christow Street
Going northwards...It was the 1st. left after Manitoba Road  on Christow Street......

It's now part of Christow Street flats....Just before Toronto Close on the modern map...... 

Hope this helps and sorry for the delay....
