The relevant County Record Office might have the electoral roll for 1907.
1907 is known, Chris :-) But maybe if they keep records for one year maybe they do for all.
Can't think of other ways to pinpoint in between censuses. Unless they registered something else. At churches maybe, perhaps doctors ? Good luck coming up with something.
If they had a trade, try the business address almanac for the town concerned. This might work if they lived in a flat above a shop.

You might find their name listed against a workshop address and, for 1907, probably safe to assume they lived within walking distance. Cars were for toffs and nouveaux riche only.

I say walking distance but, for large towns or cities, make allowances for tram networks and so forth. I always used to wonder why the Victorians/Edwardians built such wide roads, four lanes, to us and I reckon it was for trams.

thank you it was only a residential address by the side of a park and today it is still more or less the same with a gate on the end of the drive
