Can anyone read this?

[~Queen.B~]

I am trying to work out what it says but cant

[Harrys mum]

Nova Scotia

[~Queen.B~]

When I google that everything comes up for Canada. This is from the English census 1861 in Durham
Is it the name of the street or house?

[~Queen.B~]

oh doesnt matter. Have found a place called
Nova Scotia, Harraton, Co Durham

[Uncle John]

Possibly a by-product of the whaling industry.

[Just Barbara]

I would have said it was the name of the house, ours, which dates from 1897 has Avenue Cottage over the door........!!

[~Queen.B~]

Seems to be a place associated with mining....

[Southwick]

Durham Miner

I hope this works, if not look up the maps on Durham Miner, Nova Scotia is next to Harraton
