Anyone know Mortimer well?
« on: Saturday 17 February 07 19:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi guys,

Got my Great Grandfathers death certificate through today, and it shows that he died at Railway Cottages, Mortimer.

Does anyone know Mortimer, and if so, know if Railway Cottages are still there? If so, i'll make a trip.

Thankyou.

There is certainly a group of cottages just across the road from the station but not sure whether they're still known as Railway Cottages. You can see them here:
