2 Sleaford Street, Cambridge

History of 2 Sleaford Street

Number 2 Sleaford Street was constructed after 1911, as it, alongside Number 4, is not present on the 1901 OS map or either the 1901 or 1911 census.  This suggests that it was planned for construction at the time. The street is renumbered as it expands and infills across the period 1881 – 1901.
