Hi,

Just found a Green How Terr. on www.historicaldirectories.org
It says it's off Scotswood Rd, Newcastle
Only number which is relevant is:
69  Hill, W clerk

Green How Terr., St. Aidans Parish & Armstrong Ward


Is this the right town?
Paulene :)

Cannot find the other streets listed. No directories for the area later than 1916 on this particular site, I'm afraid.
What sort of period are we looking at, Faithen?

Welcome to RootsChat, by the way :)
