ADVERTISEMENT HACKNEY & KINGSLAND
GAZETTE - MAY 1890 |
The
following advertisement was published in the Hackney and Kingsland
Gazette in May 1890 for a property at Shakespeare Villas. Tottenham. I
think you will agree that both the description of the general area and
details of the property itself would satisfy the most exacting scrutiny
by any estate agents operating today.
