My parents lived at no 16 a long time ago...unfortunately they are no longer alive, but at the time the next door neighbour (possibly 18) was a Joan...will see if I can find out more (may take time though!)

If you go and look at "Cambridgeshire History On The Net"
there is a picture called haverhill road linton...looks very much like the grip I remember as a child, if it is then 18 would be on the right after the first white cottage.

Thanks very much Pigpen. Sorry to not reply earlier but did not receive the automatic notification of replies for some reason.

Hi
my father was brought up in Grip Cottage in the 1940's. We went back a few months ago and some of the cottages are still there.
Email me and i have both current photos and 1900 postcards which i will forward
