Thank you Kate, I have searched the historical directories, but they were the wrong date, a friend has a 1911 street directory for Newport, the names found didn’t fit in with info I have, it was a little early, the 1920 might be helpful, but I don’t have a subscription.

They have the 1911 and 1920 Kelly's for Hampshire, but it isn't clear if they include the IoW as well. I'm sorry, I'd check for you but my subscription has lapsed - I'm hoping that Father Christmas will pay the next instalment ;-) You can also see the 1911 census on http://www.historicaldirectories.org but a quick look suggests that this directory doesn't list the residents by address order, so it's not so easy to find a specific address. A search for 'fairlee' reveals that many of the houses in Fairlee Road, Newport, were numbered as part of a terrace, which complicates things further. Hopefully someone will be able to check the 1920 directory for you.

I did one for Youngwoods Farm to get an idea of the size of the farmhouse. There was a 'Lloyd George Doomsday' survey conducted in 1910 but the records for the Isle of Wight did not survive.
