This is him. If he's not working there as a puddler what are they doing there?

The occupations of other families at that address are all to do with iron working. There may have been a group of workers cottages adjacent to the lodge

Who did live there?

Is the actual lodge - and grounds if there were any - owned by someone important?

So my relative could be one of the 26 working for him then?

Do you know anything more about the lodge? Does it still exist?
