Would anybody be able to look up to see who was living at 21 Bedhampton Hill, Havant in 1902-4? It might well have been called Front Hill at that time.
Many thanks.

Who where the adult residents and neighbours in 1901?

Hi Pauline. Thank you for your reply. I am researching for a family member who believes that the house was built in 1902. Annoyingly I am currently not on Ancestry so I can’t check out the 1901 census.

You can search addresses on findmypast. Not sure if it helps - I don't have a subscription, but I can see 15 households in 1901 at "The Hill" Bedhampton, Havant, and 2 households in 1911. There is 1 household in 1911 at a place called Bedhamton Hill, 1 at St Helens Bedhampton Hill, 1 at Mossley Bedhampton Hill, and 2 at May Cottages Bedhampton Hill.

Looking at the 1901 census on FindMyPast sadly the properties on the Hill have house names rather than numbers and the 1911 census also uses just house names with few road names :-\
Not that it helps a lot but just to clarify if no 21 was in the same location as on street view then it was the south east side of Bedhampton Hill just a few houses south of the junction with Portsdown Hill Road which is included in this map from 1907 https://maps.nls.uk/view/105988657#zoom=6&lat=1201&lon=9615&layers=BT but not on the 1897 map https://maps.nls.uk/view/105988660#zoom=7&lat=1163&lon=9789&layers=BT
