History of Middleton Terrace Cherry Hinton Road

Middleton Terrace is another of the first strips of artisan houses that were occupied by 1891.

We know from the 1891 census that the occupants were:

1.Mendham Atkin 39 joiner, Mary 40, Edith 15 dressmaker, Reginald 14, Winifred 13, Florence 7, Grace Cuttriss niece 3.

2. Robert Proctor 44 engine stoker, Ellen 40, Frank Watkinson lodger 2. The age of their lodger is surprising but Frank Cyril Watkinson was still living with Robert and Ellen in 1911 age 20 in Kent according to the 1911 census.

3. George Buttress 23 gardener, Agnes 22, Ella 2, George 1m.

4. Matthew Hibbert 40 coachman, Charlotte 46.

Dear Visitor,

Thank you for exploring historical Cambridgeshire! We hope you enjoy your visit and, if you do,  would consider making a donation today.

Capturing Cambridge makes accessible thousands of photos and memories of Cambridge and its surrounding villages and towns. It is run by the Museum of Cambridge which, though 90 years old, is one of the most poorly publicly funded local history museums in the UK. It receives no core funding from local or central government nor from the University of Cambridge.

As a result, we are facing a crisis; we have no financial cushion – unlike many other museums in Cambridge – and are facing the need to drastically cut back our operations which could affect our ability to continue to run and develop this groundbreaking local history website.

If Capturing Cambridge matters to you, then the survival of the Museum of the Cambridge should matter as well. If you won’t support the preservation of your heritage, no-one else will! Your support is critical.

If you love Capturing Cambridge, and you are able to, we’d appreciate your support.

Every donation makes a world of difference.

Thank you,
Roger Lilley, Chair of Trustees
Museum of Cambridge
