Ian Doucet Added: 28 Jul 2023 16:31 GMT | Campbell Road, N4 Robert James, a great-uncle of mine, was born at 90 Campbell Rd, on 17 March 1899, youngest of Christina James (nee Potter) my great grandmother’s 6 children. Every child was born at a different Islington address. Seems like with the move to Campbell Rd they werent going up in the world, and a Joseph Hickie or Hicks was living with them. Anyone know of any photos of Campbell Rd at this time? Reply |

Evie Helen Added: 13 Jun 2024 00:03 GMT | Vickers Road The road ’Vickers Road’ is numbered rather differently to other roads in the area as it was originally built as housing for the "Vickers" arms factory in the late 1800’s and early 1900s. Most of the houses still retain the original 19th century tiling and drainage outside of the front doors. Reply |
