Still trying to get to bottom of renumbering (almost as bad as that of North Quay and the pubs there!) - Douglas houses were I think first numbered in 1849 but Strand st was affected by building of Loch promenade in 1876 onwards , the need to make streets down to it, also a few shops were demolished to widen the street - all these at the low end thus most numbers would be altered - the lack of trade directories in 1870's is a major blow
