Yes, giving the name of the property would have made sense |

Once again thanks for all the help. I'm sorry I should have mentioned that I know exactly where Holly Lodge Cottage is, it is now a pair of semi detatched cottages and my son and his wife own one of them, and my grandson rents the other. It is the history we are interested in. I will get on to the local history society. |

In 1911 - (looking at this in case more houses had names - but most still don't have names or numbers) - Wilfred Millington Holden is at Holly Lodge, with his family and several servants. |

Edmund Lucy was at Holly Lodge/The Hollies, not Fitzroy Campbell. |

Holly Lodge is the right one. The cottage in question is called Holly Lodge Cottage. In one of the cellars is a bricked up tunnel which is reputed to have been for the servants to gain access to the main house. I will look up Fitzroy Campbell. |

There was more than one "big house" in Wellesbourne Mountford - but it's hard to know exactly where each one was in relation to modern-day Lowes Lane. |

Thanks for the help. The cottage in question was once accommodation for servants at the "big house" At least I have something to go on. |

The Plumb family at Lowe Farm in 1871 as mentioned by GG are also there in 1861 (though spelled Low Farm). |

There is a Lowe Farm, Wellesbourne, Warwickshire in the 1871 census. Could that be it? |

Where did you get the address? Do you have documents? |

The only Lowes Lane coming up in 1871 appears to be in Stanton by Dale, Shardlow RD, Derbyshire |

The address is Lowes Lane, Wellesbourne. Warwickshire. |

That would be the 1871 census. |
