You are in [Places] [High Street Properties]

The links below comprise extensive records of most High Street properties. Many records date back to c1470. This is an incomplete survey, subject to ongoing correction and addition. The intention is to establish a full chronological record of the occupancy of each house listed. These records have no legal status.

Many of the dates noted are "spot" dates taken from estate surveys, Quit Rent rolls, Commoners' Lists, Trade Directories, Enclosure Award, maps, or other sources and may not indicate arrival or departure of an occupier.

The great majority of the information on individual properties prior to 1750 comes from the work of the late Norman Hidden, to whom the town owes a great debt of gratitude. Abbreviations for sources include:
NH = Norman Hidden's notes
QR = Quite Rent Rolls
CL = Commoners' Lists
EA = Enclosure Award
