? House, Buckland Monachorum, Devon (1861 Census)

[MacGrigor]

Hello,

I’ve just been looking through a scan of the household of William and Mary Harding in Buckland Monachorum in 1861. I can read that their address is something ‘house’, but can’t make out the first part, other than it may be a ‘B’. Could anyone please take a look for me?

 Broom House. 

Added: The description of the enumeration district mentions Broom (where it is written more clearly).

[MacGrigor]

Excellent, thanks Ruskie!

No worries Adam.

I had a quick look on the NLS maps but there’s not enough detail to show the houses. There may be other maps which do though.

I looked on Apple Maps and found an area called Broom near Crapstone and Yelverston, so not in the village of Buckland Monachorum it seems, but presumably within the parish.
