Thank you all so much! Such speedy responses, and such helpful detail. I hadn’t realised that these maps were available: thank you very much for sharing. A further perusal of these old maps will be called for as I track down the other addresses where my forebears lived, and then maybe a trip to Bedlington!

Would anyone know where Wilson’s Yard was/is? Apparently my great grandfather lived there in 1881 and worked as a “servant” for the Wilson family. His actual trade was blacksmith, so I’m assuming he was employed to look after their horses.
