The deeds don't help as it originally was a local authority house and
the deeds only start when it was sold to the private sector.

It's obvious that it was built somewhere around 1945-1950

Is there a simple way to date the house more accurately ? than that ?


You could try this...problem is most of the answers you might not know?

I tried it and the house I'm in is almost to the date it gave me, due to
not knowing some of the questions.

I tried my 1931 house and it thought it was late Victorian.


Ditto for my 1963 house, 1880 was the most probable date.
