Need Digital Photo of 143 Highgate in Kendal
« on: Wednesday 23 November 05 18:48 GMT (UK) »
Could someone take a digital photo of 143 Highgate in Kendal? I have an ancestor named Robert Heap (1804-1872)  who lived there in 1851 (source is the 1851 census). I can't find a listing online for 143, so I'm not sure if it exists now.

Thanks,
Richard

Hi

It may be an idea to email Kendal council to check if it still exists

 re photo of highgate kendal.     highgate in kendal is made up of yards  with numbers ...........  in the yards where houses  again with numbers .   also  the yards had numbers  but also names.  i come from kendal ......... my mum lives in gawith place   which is down yard 73    .     the numbers get bigger   as you move out from the town market place.     i will have a look next time home for you but may be some time.    try kendal libary    or a book of  photo's by margaret  duff  (sure thats the name)  on old kendal    or the olde grey town .  you should be able to get loads of  prints or photo's   , but main thing is it a house number  (poss with business name)  or a yard  number ..........   also kendal has changed so much  it may be gone .    regards   adrian

Just in case you are still interested this building no longer exists - it was demolished to make way for a road through to Dowker's Lane which was put through in the 1960's I think when Waterside was built behind Highgate.

The building was shown on the 1919? valuation map of Kendal and looked as if it was one of a pair with 141 Highgate (buildings in yard behind appeared to be mirrored) and had Yard 145 Highgate running beneath it on it's right hand side.

For a photo of 141 Highgate see my website http://www.kendalwiki.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=Highgate - look at the photos down the right hand side.

Have a map scan for you but could not work out how to upload it here - the 'attach a photo' link below edit box does not seem to do anything.
