Grimstone Cottage, Borrowby
« on: Saturday 30 April 05 18:26 BST (UK) »
Trying to find a Grimstone Cottage at Borrowby in 1881 census where my Pratt ancestors  were farming probably a smallholding.  Any suggestions as to where I can find any maps with it on as have drawn a blank so far.
Thanks

Have you checked to see if it still exists?   There are various web sites for postcodes etc that will tell you.  I am sure someone will know the exact web address.  Or the old map sites?  Or write to the ocuupier and see what happens!
