Might this help:

https://maps.cheshireeast.gov.uk/tithemaps/

Scroll around to find the place where your ancestors lived.

I’m not too familiar with the site, but I think you click on the properties to see details about owners plus more. Not all areas are covered.

Thank you, youngtug and Ruskie. 

Ruskie - I've looked at the tithe maps but, unfortunately, the name of the road is "not recognised" so I presume it's been renamed in the intervening years.  I'll certainly go back to the site and do a bit more "hovering" - -might just strike lucky!
