battersea nine elms census street query
« on: Friday 12 March 10 10:44 GMT (UK) »
I had a relative lodging at an address which looks like Sterndale Rd but the only one I can find doesn't seem to be in the right area!  I don't know London at all.  Parish on census return, which was 1901, is St Andrew. 

Would anyone with more knowledge know if this street is no more or whereabouts it was so I can check it out on a map?

Much thanks  :)

There is a nine elms lane in SW8 near Battersea Power Station

Could that be it?

It looks like Sterndale Rd more than anything else number 68.  Certainly starts with St and ends in dale but the middle bit is open to suggestion.
Nine elms is the borough shown on the census return.  Parlimentary division looks like Clapham.

The houseowners name is hard to read Eliza Horsby or Horby otherwise I would look her up and see if she was still there in previous years.

Hi,

My copy of the first A-Z of London includes a list of all the streets that had name changes;  Sterndale Rd SW8 became Condell Road.

Hope that helps,

Hi,

Have found a Condell road Sw8  if you go onto google maps and tap this in you can zoom right in and have a look at the houses.   Looks like they are all fairly new :-\
