lol No wonder I couldn't find him in 1901!!

I expect 2 The Crescent would have been rented and whilst fashionable, they were not grand or particularly large by standards of those days. it's bedsit-land now.

Yes, I'll definitely take some photos and try not to get arrested lol (only joking, it's not that bad!!)
