My nana was born in 1908 at "18 Donegal Street Buildings". I was wondering if someone knew the area, if it is just a row of houses, and she would have been born at number 18, OR is it a building in the middle of the street?

Thanks Tony. I would have taken the tube to Angel, and walked from there. Fair way but would enjoy the walk. I don't think I will go though. Dad said he went there in the 80s and it was all flat buildings etc built around the 60s, so I don't think the house where my nana was born in 1908, and her half sister died in 1916 will be there anymore. I doubt any of the buildings my ancestors were born in are still there in London today. Thanks so much though.
