    Congratulations on spamming the forum.

    As for your 'calculator', it doesn't even have my area of the UK in, pretty useless if you ask me.

    Hi, really sorry if we left out your area of the UK, where is it and I'll get it fixed. Shame you think it's spam, we spent a long time on it to get it right and I believe it is useful for people less knowledgeable about property than you.

    It is both pretty useless and spam.

    Just happened to come across this from a google search and thought I'd add to it as one of the resources I found to be most useful has not been mentioned...

    I've just recently bought a house and the inevitable question came up - my house, best guess is pre 1896! If anyone happens to find out any resources that might give earlier clues, please let me know!

    So in addition to old-maps.co.uk, if you house is very old like mine - also try for additional clues:
    maps.nls.uk (there are maps dating as far back as 1840s)
