A still existing row of houses on 7 to 15 Malvern Street, Stapenhill, Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, were known as 'Ivanhoe Villas' around 1884.
The name appears next to these houses on 6" and 25" O.S. maps published in 1884, based on surveys carried out in 1881 or 1882, but on later O.S. maps of the area no name is included. No name plaque is visible in the Google Earth Street View photo (see below), and it is unclear whether the name is still in use. Template:PnItemQry
