History of house in Glossop
« on: Wednesday 15 May 19 20:23 BST (UK) »
Hi, I would like to trace the history of a house in Glossop which my daughter has just bought, the house in question is number 8 Pikes Lane Glossop. Any information would be greatly appreciated as we know very little about the house.

Obviously called Pikes Lane as Pikes farm was at the end of it.

Local electoral rolls might be in local library?  Derbyshire Archives?

In 1939 the house was vacant.
I am not allowed to post 1911

It is shown on the 1879 map https://maps.nls.uk/view/101599878#zoom=6&lat=3444&lon=5130&layers=BT
It is also shown on the 1880 Glossop Town Plan at https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/403026/393667/13/100156

I beg it’s pardon. Was looking at the Princess Street intersection rather than St John’s. Sorry.

There is a report in the Hyde & Glossop Weekly News, and North Cheshire Herald - Saturday 04 September 1875 which mentions No. 12 Pike's Lane Glossop, so No 8 was probably there at the same time as shown on the Town Plan.
