First line of address?
« on: Saturday 17 August 13 12:57 BST (UK) »
Can anyone tell me what the last word in the first line of this address reads, it looks like ????chatel but I am unsure what the first letters are.

Also does anyone know where in (I assume) France this place is.

Thanks   Steve

Neupchatel? Neufchatel?

Pas de Calais is in northern France, the second department coming SW from the border with Belgium.

EDIT; My guess is Somer St Omer.

The most likely according to Google is: Rue de Neufchatel, St Omer, Pas de Calais
Eccles (Hoylake / Exeter / Plymouth)
Hicks (Devonport, Plymouth)
Grafton (Exeter, Devon)
Harris (Marazion, Cornwall)
Collard (Yeovil, Somerset)
Johns (Devonport, Plymouth)
Lyle (Bude, Cornwall)
