1871 Census:
The enumerator for District 8, which included River Road, did not complete his
listings sequentially, he seems to have dodged about somewhat making the tracing
of pub proprietors very difficult. *
He incorrectly annotated most of the River Road properties as being in Surrey
Street from before the Ship and Anchor, number 3, to beyond the Rose and Crown,
number 38. He then recorded Ferry Road (now Terminus Road), Hampton Court and
Purbeck Place, finally listing the remainder of River Road annotating it as
such. *
Hampton Court and Purbeck Place were not listed where they were located
geographically in either River Road or Ferry Road but were listed one after the
other as above. *
The following listing was determined by the preceding and succeeding known
information. *
