Full description
Devon County Council, 1838-1848, Tithe Mosaic, approximately 1838-1848 (Cartographic). SDV349431.
Tithe Map depicts this building; plot 87 'cottages' on apportionment. The map shows four large main buildings making up the block of buildings in the centre of the square; these were mostly later subdivided, except number 5.
Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.
The late 19th century historic map shows that most of the buildings in the Square have been subdivided, and this property is likely to have been split into two.
Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.
