Hi Badger,

You could try the electoral register.

Hi Badger,

As Julie says, visit your local (to the house!) County research office and have a look at the electoral Records.

If its Cambridge (shire) have a look here:
cambridgeshire.gov.uk

Many have maps and an index for the street for where the house is situated.

All the best and let us know how you get on.

Regards,
Dave
