Re: Railway Terrace

Not heard it so far as this street is concerned- there are no terraces in it. I wonder if the terrace between Edgar St and the railway viaduct has a name. Retlaw has a very good knowledge of terraces' names. I think there may be one in Huncoat, though the inhabitants there would be more likely to use Altham church. In 1853, the railway was still in its infancy ( the viaduct over King St is dated 1848) Knowing the name and looking at the 1851 census and subsequernt ones may throw light on the actual location.
