A different set of numbers

Look closely and you will notice the numbers carved into the lintels are 5 and 6 - not the ones on the actual doors. Clearly the original numbering of Victoria Terrace (in Burcott Road) of 1888 has been changed. The area dates from around the turn of the nineteenth century when there was an isolation hospital just along the road.
