Help with Address
« on: Tuesday 07 August 18 13:21 BST (UK) »
Hopefully an easy one...

I can work out most of this baptism record (St Mary Magdalene, Peckham) but would like some help with the "address" details.

It looks to me like "3 Leudo Street Cemetery Road" but i cannot find any reference to such streets.

Thanks for any help.

Looks like Cemetery Road was the former name of Linden Grove:

There is a present-day Tresco Road off Linden Grove. Not what this handwriting looks like, but I'm never sure how these records originate. 'Tresco' scribbled down in haste at the time, then when the official record was written up later this was a best guess?

Here's a map. The bit of Linden Grove that runs past the main entrance to Nunhead cemetery was formerly Cemetery Road. You can see Tresco Road bottom left.

Sorry, not much help, but I think second letter is an 'e' and third letter is an 'n' ...  :-\

Just been looking at this and think it's Lindo Street. Trying to work out where it is now.

Cas and Ruskie thanks also - some writing is clear as anything and some other i cant work out anything until someone gives me a suggestion!

Thanks again
