Re: Model Lodging House At Church

For my sins-yes Wadey. ! Are you very familiar with Rammy? Do I know you?

Bob your expert input would be appreciated as always. I found a website today "Did My Ancestors Live In A Model Lodging House?" that sort of confirms my speculation that there was a Daily Mail type panic about working class conditions. The Deeds for my place show it was built for an Aristocratic Woman in Yorkshire [heresy I know] to raise 18 Guineas a year in income a tidy sum then. Perhaps it was a government supported "cash cow" like wind farms today?
