Ann Street became an extension to Colmore Row. (So Ann Street didn't later form all of Colmore Row). Also Monmouth Street (previously Bull Lane and near Bull Street) also in time became part of Colmore Row.

In the C17th Colmore Row was New Hall Lane, presumably much shorter than the later and extended Colmore Row.

Thread 'Colmore Row'

I am currently looking at Colmore Row, since it appears as the residence of a Catherine Faircloth at the time of her marriage to Edward Hough (Brick Layer) in 1846. When checking the 1841 I found Nanny Faircloth residing at Monmouth Street. I didn't know until doing a search that Monmouth Street was near Colmore Row, I cannot find it but wondered if they were one and the same. I would appreciate it if any one has a map or any clue to where Monmouth Street is or was. Any history about Colmore Row too?
