House address - Whirlow, Sheffield
« on: Thursday 29 October 20 11:51 GMT (UK) »
Without library access  I tried to find a house name/address of a property in Whirlow, Sheffield from the 1911 census using family search.org but the address is not shown.   The occupants include Frederick Charles Wild, b.1851 in Sheffield and his wife Ellen Wild b.1854 in Liverpool.

I am not researching the Wild family, only the name of the property they are living in.   Grateful for help.

Many thanks for the rapid responses.    My interest is drawn from reading a book 'Whirlow The story of an ancient Sheffield Hamlet' which records many old Whirlow properties.   
 
The property I'm looking for is Whirlow Croft Farm which is not the one occupied by the Wild family.  I don't have names but thanks for your help.

Hello again

Just realised my error - another senior moment.  The name should read Whirlow Croft Farm (not Court)

Looking at the summary pages on Ancestry - Whirlow Lane, Whirlow - there are two farms, neither named, one occupied by Mills and the other by Coates.

*this link does not show the close up I intended. Whirlow Croft is N NE of the last W in the place name Whirlow. It is on Whirlow Lane which tallies with the census finds.
