I'm hoping someone may be able to help, I'm looking for the location of Hitchens Row, the address given on the 1901 census. It states Municipal ward Bishop Street, I've looked around the Bishop Street area and can't locate it. Any ideas would be great

The only Cross Street I can see on the map is off Harnall Lane. When you look on the census what streets are around it Covlass? |
