hi lyn, checked the 1921 kellys and the numbers dont start till no. 15 but previous to that there is st. nicolas vicarage - rev william claude ellison, vicar of st. nicolas. so perhaps that what it was
 
thanks chris...im sure the numbers were lower than 15 and numbers do change but i can double check that...but looking at the building it may well have been a vicarage...must do some more work on this one...

thank you again...

In 1936 it is just the vicarage listed there, with no number. In 1956 no 3 is the rectory, and after that is Universal Jig & Gauge Co. Ltd. jig makers.
 
thanks mike..i would say that sorts it then..the uni jig and gauge co is next to it and is still there...i used to work there in the 70s...

lyn...:)
