Thanks for the information.Although I am aware of each of those districts/streets, I am not sure after whom of the many Lobleys they were named.In the huge urban building programmes of the late 19th and 20th centuries, there were a lot of streets to be named.Possibly the Lobley locations were named after local councillors, borough engineers or other local worthies.
There are only a few 'famous' Lobleys, both from Yorkshire.
If you would like any more information, please let me know.
