Hadleigh 1836 |
History Group |
The eight members of
Hadleigh Society History Group will be peopling the streets of the town
based on a map dated 1836 held in Hadleigh Archive. The map shows all the
residential streets with buildings represented as approximate-sized
rectangles, except for the parish church of St Mary’s that appears to be a
scaled plan. Some dwellings and business premises have the names of their
occupiers, while others are numbered. These numbers do not refer to present
addresses but to a local census discovered in the Suffolk Record Office at
Bury St Edmunds.
A3 colour
photographic copies of the map (suitable for framing) will be on sale
together with notes and a transcription of the census, price £15.00. |
