Street Name - Potton 1841
« on: Sunday 21 November 10 07:37 GMT (UK) »
Good Morning,

Is there any local person who can tell me the name of this street please.  It looks clear enough on the Enumerator's Description but isn't quite the same as on the census image.  Is it Horseler Street or maybe Hostler?

Thanks for your help.

Just managed to spot a Horslow Street still there now, do you think this is it and has the name changed over the years perhaps?

I have a booklet about the Great Fire of Potton which includes an 1814 map. In the centre of Potton was Hors(e)low St

Thanks David, I'll put the 1841 census down to bad handwriting.
