Full description

South West Heritage Trust, 1838-1848, Digitised Tithe Maps and Transcribed Apportionments, Plot 81 (Cartographic). SDV359954.

Depicted on the 1840s Tithe Map; part of a single huge dwelling fronting onto the road here (plot 81) with rear extension. No separate divisions shown but apportionment records 'Cottages and Gardens' with a range of owners (6) and occupiers (7) so it appears to have been separate dwellings despite the map depiction.

Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.

The late 19th century historic map as a single large building at the rear of numbers 20 and 28 Lower Street.

Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.

Similar to the late 19th century historic map depiction, although building appears to have been subdivided by this time into three separate dwellings.

Ordnance Survey, 2023, Mastermap 2023 (Cartographic). SDV365227.

Nos 22-26 Lower Street are depicted on the modern mapping. Matches the historic maps and appears to show number 22 to the rear slightly overlapping number 20 fronting onto Lower Street, which may indicate a change in layout of the houses at some stage.
