    The cottages at Bassett Green were numbered from 79-93. (All the estate cottage in Hampshire were numbered, from 1-108). Can anyone help identify which numbers refer to which buildings in the present?

    In 1911, the cottages were occupied as follows:

    No. 79 - Occupied by F LEY, estate worker
    No. 80 - Rented and occupied by A EDWARDS
    No. 81 - Occupied by A FARNES?], estate worker
    No. 82 - Rented and occupied by H WILTSHIRE
    No. 83 - Rented and occupied by GRIFFIN, F J
    No. 84 - Rented and occupied by BETTERIDGE
    No. 85 - Rented and occupied by A HARRIS
    No. 86 - Rented and occupied by Mrs TUBB
    No. 87 - Rented and occupied by H MARKS
    No. 88 - Occupied by H STACEY
    No. 89 - "empty" "to be pulled down"
    No. 90 - Rented and occupied by H MILTON
    No. 91 - Rented and occupied by C HOLLOWAY

    Thank you to the two kind persons who have taken the trouble to answer this -- as follows:

    No. 80 is now 2 Bassett Green
    No. 81 is now 4 Bassett Green
    No. 82 is now 6 Bassett Green
    No. 83, 84 and 85 have all been demolished. (No. 83 might have been 'Rose Cottage''?)
    No. 86 is now 3 Bassett Green
    No. 87 is now 5 Bassett Green
    No. 88 is now 7 Bassett Green
    89, 90, 91 and 92 have all been demolished.
