Google gives Another Flitcroft Street in London, another in Durham. Also surname of Flitcroft in Stockport.

Does your family perhaps have a connection with Bolton, Lancs? I found mention of a Flitcroft Street, Bolton here http://boltonremembers.org/regiment/cheshire-regiment/

Many thanks for these helpful replies. I shall have to consider non-Stockport possibilities if my enquiry at Stockport local history library draws a blank. I apologise for seeming to make life difficult by not naming the couple in the photograph. I have them in the 1911 census, living in Stockport, though not in Flitcroft Street. All I can say is that I have a very good reason for not naming them at this stage (he added mysteriously!)
