Thanks for your very quick replies, and amazingly helpful. Though "Cross the hill" not on any street map I knew from census returns it must be near Silver Street. Being near to the breweries helped and I see now the six houses on Gun Bank are 19th Century when the lane might have been unnamed. Houses now called Marfield Terrace because the lane continues to the old Marfield House, which I found on old OS map. I have now looked at the 1911 cen, and I see Cross is short for Across and the family declared their address to be Cross Street. I guess Cross the Hill comes from the direction of crossing the slope as it lowers down to the river. This was very poor housing with 2 or 3 families sharing a 2 up and 2 down building, saying they each had 2 rooms, one of which was a shared kitchen.
