Corner of Walls Avenue and Tower Road

Walls Avenue faces the city walls, and Tower Road passes close to the historic Water Tower, behind the camera. The terrace of houses on the left was erected for the 'working classes' in 1904 and the event is commemorated by two foundation stones; one is set in the bottom right hand corner behind the lamppost, and the other is to the rear of the property to the left of the grey electric cable cover.
