St Sorrells, Exeter
« on: Saturday 23 October 10 14:01 BST (UK) »
Can someone tell where this is - or was? Is it a district around a church, a suburb, an area? I'm particularly looking for Paris Street, St Sorrells

I think you will find it is an area called St Sidwells.

Kind regards

No such place as St Sorrells- that entry definitely reads St Sidwells.

Many thanks for that - it explains why I couldn't find it. I definitely need new glasses!
