The map you require is available from
www.alangodfreymaps.co.uk Alan Godfrey Maps, Prospect Business Park, Leadgate. Consett, DH8 7PW. The maps are reprints of the 1/2500 (25" to 1 mile) Ordnance Survey maps dated around 1910. (but reduced in size) Cost is £2.20 per map including VAT. You will need sheets 64.02 and 64.03. As always happens Anne Street crosses the edges of both Maps!
Anne street ran parallel with Brunshaw Road near Turf Moor. It was certainly 200 yds long - probably more. On the Turf Moor (North) the houses were numbered from 2 - 118 and on the South side from 1 - 109.
Hope this helps!
