Yes, sorry, I've already traced the building back to 1871 census. Forgot to mention that. Can't find evidence of it in the 1861 census though. There was a lot of building carried out in the area around that time so I'm assuming the row was built around then but no real proof of that. It could have been built for the workers of the iron works as it's known that a lot of the houses around the bottom of Victoria Street were built for that reason. But the row is a distance away from the other rows in the area and is of a different construction (if memory serves me). Could have been for more senior people at the works. There is a record of the works manager living around there somewhere but I haven't been able to pin point where.
