New Street

A few yards north from Farrier Street lies New Street, which connects Middle Street to High Street (originally Lower Street).  The picture, looking from the High Street, shows what appear to have been two public houses next door to each other on the north (left) side of the street.

Looking north from the junction with New Street, Golden Street can be seen on the right.

The narrowness of these streets is again highlighted by the car at the top of Golden Street.  Until recently, the conservation area status of these streets prevented the council from putting the double yellow lines on the road to ban parking!

Looking north from Golden Street towards Silver Street, we see the Ship Inn on the left.  The large, cream-coloured house in the centre marks the junction with Silver Street.  The post-box on the wall by the front door of the house on the right is Victorian.

This page contains pictures of the streets leading from Middle Street to the sea front, from New Street north to Silver Street, with pictures looking north along Middle Street from each junction.
