Gwyn, do you know if 120 Seabrook Rd is still there? I can't locate it on Street view in Google and I wondered how big and how old it was. There was a sizeable family living there for it also to be housing mums-to-be. The nurse who lived there seemed to have developed her midwifery business by 1939 with another nurse at a place called The Nursery.

Tim I will make it my mission to find out !

We couldn't find it easily on Streetview either , but I think it might still be there.

Even numbers are on the south side of the road and numbered from the west end of the road. ...ie Hythe going towards Folkestone
I think 120 is the last of the houses before a row of bungalows that are set back from the road.

If you look on Streetview for a house in the high teens eg. 114 - 118 you might be able to see house numbers on the garden walls and work out location of 120.

When possible,I will take a look at the area and see what I can find out about it.

Well it's definitely still there. I made a point of looking this afternoon.

Haven't had a chance to research the history yet, but will do so soon.
