Doe.

No Idea Who owned the courts in Robsart St, but most of the properties around that area were owned by numerous Propertie Merchants (some only holding 2-3 Properties in any one street others owned Whole Streets!.

PS.

Pity You fif'nt ask this Q 12months ago (My Mother would have probably known!

She passed away a few months ago! (I used to run alsorts past Her when I was Stuck with a bit of research!). :roll: :wink:

thank you Pegasus for your reply bet the owners lived in better houses than they rented out ,they knew that people were desperate for homes but i cant see them keeping them in good condition , you say about asking your late mum questions just wish we had asked a bit more

Can I suggest that you do a search for the name in the Old Newspapers, I've often come across advertisements for sales or auctions of houses. You never know it might just pop up.
