The apartment building shown below is 12 Landsdowne
Avenue; and I suspect homes at 12 and 14 were demolished to make way
for it. The Newdick residence at 14 Landsowne was the home of the George Robert "Bob" Newdick
family. It was perhaps similar to the home next to the apartment, but
without the third floor addition and the enclosed front veranda.

Bob Newdick,
his wife Jane and their children were residing at Market Place,
Swaffham in 1887 at the time of the birth of their daughter Ida Mary
Newdick. The view shown below is to the North West, looking into Market
Square. The building on the extreme right is the Corn Hall. Perhaps the
Newdick Family resided in one to the buildings on the left side of the
square. Possibly Bob Newdick had a tailor shop on the first floor and
the family lived upstairs.

The Newdick family is shown as residing
at 110 London Street, Swaffham on the 1881 census. The "London Street
Store" is 98 London Street, so the Newdick Residence must have been
located on the right hand side of the road a bit further along. I can't
see much of these homes because of the shrubbery and trees. The Newdick
Family resided here in 1881 or about 130 years ago. Their home could
have been replaced with a more modern home.
