Title: Mariners Lane, Norwich
Post by: usacheshire on Tuesday 12 October 10 01:23 BST (UK)

Can anyone tell me whether 24 Mariners Lane, which in 1901 was in St John de Sepulchre parish exists
.  The ref I have  RG13; Piece: 1841; Folio: 105; Page: 24.

Another location I have is Cherry Street in Lakenham.  Before I make plans to visit the area it would be nice to know that I am not looking at redevelopment areas.

Thanks so much Shoeman- thats a great site. I managed to look up other streets that my forbears lived in.
I am not surprised that after 120 years inner city cottages have been cleared, but it was worth a try.
The name in Cherry street Lakenham was Tillett.
