Thanks for that.
I had it in my head that Long Row, Cross Row, Burn Row and Stable Row were built all at once in the late 1830s and early 1840s. I was beginning to realise this was probably not true when I counted the number of people in Radcliffe in the 1841 census. I made it 289, not enough to fill all the houses I've mentioned. I remember the houses in Newburgh Row were a different design from both the old back to backs and the newer streets such as Leslie Row. I'm assuming they were built in about 1880/1890. Have you got a more precise date?
I've just looked through the 1901 census and all the streets I remember from my childhood are mentioned. Those are:
Long Row (north and south) Cross Row (east and west) Burn Row (which was demolished before my time) Newburgh Row, Centre Row, Leslie Row, Stable Row, Dansfield Place (64 houses therefore both Dandsfields) and Longstaff buildings which I assume were along the main road.
