Title: Rhone Cottage, Marple
Post by: enchantica on January 15, 2017, 08:20:02 PM

Does anyone have any idea where Rhone Cottage is?  My great grandparents David and Elizabeth Corbett are listed as living there  on the 1939 register. There's also a Rhone House mentioned
I think it might be in the upper Hibbert Lane area
Thanks for any info

There is Rhode Houses, a terrace just below the chip shop on Upper Hibbert Lane.

If it is Rhode and not Rhone, then here's a picture of Rhode Houses from the Virtual Tour:
