I’ve just been told today that my Mom and Dad lived at 52 Dinglemead when they got married back in 1948. Im not how long they lived there but my two brothers were born there so that means at least until 1954.

However I cannot find this address on google maps. I can only assume that the street doesn’t exist anymore. Does anyone know where this road would have been so I can find on the map.

i’m just curious to find where they lived together at the start of their marriage. I know it was a flat with a balcony but that’s all.

thank you to anyone who can help.
 
It was 2 words. It was off Brandwood Park Road - see c1960s map. No. 50/52 marked with red marker.

It was replaced somewhere around the 1980s I think based on maps - red marker in same place as firt map.

This is brilliant thank you so much. I’m gathering family history from my Aunt and you have been so helpful finding the maps. I appreciate your help.
