A classic Victorian street with terrace houses of various configurations depending on the "rank" of the people who lived in the house. I have lived in "Railway" houses in Crewe and "Armstrong's Brickworks" in Newcastle upon Tyne and they are all very similar and the easy way to tell the grades is by the height of & protection for the front door. Did you wear a flat hat, bowler or high hat? I think these may have been "Railway houses". Image] - railway houses.
