Newtown Road Newbury - No address.

Thankyou for that information, the information that I have is that the C stands for Charles Taylor, who could be a great-grandfather long deceased, I don't know even a rough date of birth or a estimate of his age or any other family names of individuals that lived in the Globe at that time, I would hate to have to wait until the 1921 census becomes available!

Thanks Newburykeith

101 Newbury Rd was the address of the Rokeby Arms - we were landlords there 1972-3

I've been looking for where my late grandad was born. On his Birth Cert it says 99 Newtown Road. I contacted Reading Library to see if they could look it up on the electoral reg for me from 1920 - 1925.

I got a reply today saying that NewTown Road does Exist, but only Place Names, Not house numbers.

I think we are back where this thread began.

99 Newtown Road was the address given for births in the Newbury Union Workhouse until the street was renumbered in (I think) 1924.  The Workhouse eventually became Sandleford Hospital.

I believe that 99 Newtown Road was the address of the Newbury Union Workhouse.

93 people buried in the Newtown Road Cemetery had the address of 99 Newtown Road.
