Those big houses are still there Mally - have a look at Beaumont Road, Blackheath on Google Earth. There are a couple of smaller houses where the shop used to be - but I bet they are the same buildings.

I'll have a look at the number, but the numbers may have changed since then.
Be back in about 10 mins

Doesn't seem to be in any census till 1911. Was it renamed?
I find it amusing that in picture we have at least a dozen children and now one of the houses has a "No Ball Play" sign.

The houses were renumbered in 1910.
