The map at reply #5 shows the Pest house in relation to the Water Company. It also shows the development that is creeping north toward the Pest Houses. The 2nd map at reply #1 shows the development that has already occurred and the creation of the new Eastwood Lane and Southbourne Grove.

This 1898 map shows Pest Houses on Eastwood Rd (west of Juniper) and also Pest Houses to the south. The whole area is beginning to be developed.

Side by Side
Position cursor over Pest Houses on old map - note there are two instances of this name, directly north/south of each other. Positioning the cursor will identify it's location on the modern map to the right.

Thanks very much Hanes, especially for the forthcoming newspaper item text. It appears the Pest House (Pleasant Place) is shown west of Junipers on the map. Cheers, Rob
