The house in the middle #7 is ours and the one on the right is the Stevens’, #5.

Note one can see some people standing outside #5 next to a stone pillar (still there) which marks our boundary and the original entrance to the house from the street. The path also is still there.

The front dry stone wall and the garage remain virtually unchanged but all the houses themselves have changed almost beyond recognition, although the changes are virtually all simple ground floor additions resulting in internal changes – nothing seems to have been demolished.
