The 1890 map of the are is at https://www.british-history.ac.uk/m...d=10089&ox=4167&oy=216&zm=1&czm=1&x=559&y=344
You can recentre by clicking on map. If you need the upper part of carver st you will have to go onto different street. I have a larger scale map (1890) of part of the area. If you say exactly what you are looking for, this might have more detail

Thanks for the link.
Reckon 1890 map of streets would be ideal if you could please.
Looking for location of streets at time of marriage in 1873 Benjamin Whitehouse - Lower Camden St and Sarah Slater - Carver St. And if further possible map showing location of All Saints Church Hockley.

In the 1873 Whites directory there is an entry for Jacob Whitehouse, clerk at 157 Lower Camden st. Between 1879 and 1880 lower Camden Street became part of Camden St, and there was a renumbering. The house, still with Jacob listed as occupant ( but giving no occupation) was then no 287 Camden St. The probable position of this is shown on the 1890 map below in red. T was certainly within a house either side of this, and I think this is most likely . Note, in 1873 Ellen St did not exist, but had been built by 1878..
There is no listing of a Slater in the 1873 directory, so I’m afraid I do not know where in Carver St she was , but the upper part of Carver st in 1890 is at https://www.british-history.ac.uk/mapsheet.aspx?compid=55193&sheetid=10087&ox=4004&oy=3116&zm=1&czm=1&x=431&y=413 , and the lower part at https://www.british-history.ac.uk/mapsheet.aspx?compid=55193&sheetid=10087&ox=4004&oy=3116&zm=1&czm=1&x=431&y=413 . For the lower half, Carver st is the one running down with only Street written on it.

Mike,
Thanks for link and info. The latter I will endeavour to link with Benjamin’s father Thomas a Builders Clerk (Could be Jacob was his father or other relative). Your comments on Ellen St remind although I think houses were old some were of course recent builds in those times.
