Philippa compares two very different Stamford houses, nos.9-10 Maiden Lane and Rock Cottage, later rebuilt as Rock House. One is on a tightly packed street in the middle of town, and the other stands in what was its own substantial grounds on the outskirts. She investigates who lived in each building over time, what they did and for what that building was used.
