I still cant quite work this one out. I visited Linton the other day but cannot find /be sure where 18 grip cottage is. I found a rd called the Grip where Linton Zoo is. I am now familiar with Linton High st. I'm not certain where Haverhill rd is that Pigpen mentioned ( & picture of it shown on Cambs history website)

Any help appreciated

cheers

When Linton was bypassed, the Haverhill Road became a cul-de-sac of sorts and this is now referred to as The Grip - the maps available on multimap do not clearly show this.

If you still don't have an up to date photo of the house I can take one for you
