12, Hill Top, Kyo, Lanchester, Durham

Afternoon Rootschatters,

I was wonder whether the above address still exists?  I had ancestors who lived there for a number of years...

Thanks

There is no Hill Top in New Kyo - besides that village has only existed for about 120 years.  East and West Kyo and Kyo Laws have existed much longer but there is little left of the original settlement and no Hill Top there now, if there ever was.

What are the dates? Are they in any Censuses?
