The thing about the deaths, Maggie, is that virtually nobody died in their houses. They must have had a warning and gone to shelters. Most of those in Coburg Street had headed for Fratton School and that took a direct hit. Googling, I found this, a Gazeteer of Portsmouth, which looks as if it was uploaded this Spring: https://www.portsmouth.gov.uk/wp-con...aedia-2011.pdf
