Title: Census 1861 address?
Post by: Mercel on Thursday 30 June 22 17:03 BST (UK)
Looking for the address of my great grandfather in 1861. Census address is unreadable due to a water mark on the original document. The address was in Birtley sub district Harraton. It was something Houses, first word looks to begin with a P. I looked pages before and after right up to next address which proved pointless. The next address was Heslop Houses so presume in the nearby vicinity of the address I need. Does anyone have any idea what the address maybe please, image attached.
Many thanks

Have you looked at the first page - the description of the Enumeration District?

I think it might be Peareth's Houses.

The 'Moulders Arms' (still going strong apparently  ;D ) is next on the census along with Heslop Houses so probably in this area

Edit: The address of the Moulder's Arms is Peareth Terrace
