Kelly's Directories price twelve shillings (this would be 60p in modern money).
This directory has a street directory, as below. The Dewdrop Inn (number 85/87) is not mentioned by name although it is in the 1913 Spaldings directory. This also has the wrong house number for the Alexandra Arms, which is number 22.
