    Memo from Robert Fudge dated 28 May 2008

    "Number 15 (where John Peters lived before he married Roseanne Goddard) is the house in photo 002 and is the first three storey house just to the right of centre - the one with the downstairs window open".

    "Number 16 (where some of the Bennet family members lived) is next door to it with the red van parked directly outside".

    Thanks Rob
