I understood from my late Mum that Kempton Villas were Water Board houses. Looking on Google Earth, there has been a lot of development in Kempton Road. It seems my Grandad and Great grandfather worked for the MWB. As I did when younger, 18 to 28.

Here is a map showing Kempton Road.

I was up in Moffat researching my family, Hill. I was told that the people who know everything Moffat are the owners of the Moffat Toffee Shop.

I understand that my Great Grandparents (Mitchell) lived at 2 Kempton Villas in and around 1900. He was a Working Fitter with the Metropolitan Water Board. As I understand it, the housing was very poor, so was probably demolished and they went to live in Hampton Hill.

The details on the Marriage Certificate would be of interest to me.
