    Hi all,

    does anyone know how to get when a particular property was built? I called the council, but they didnt have it in their system. Is there any where else I can look?

    Thanks

    Depending upon how old the house is, you may be able to date it from the style of building or (if you are really lucky) have a look at the tap in the garden – these often have a date of manufacture which is very close to the install date.  You'd be lucky to find the exact date.

    If its an old place, maybe it has lino ? sometimes people put the newspapers under it, and sometimes they put new lino over the old. Its exciting reading the old papers from the 1960's etc.

    Just a stab in the dark.
