One of the medieval streets that make walking round Newark such a pleasure. Most of the buildings are, of course, Victorian or even early 20th century. But the streetplan is far older. Look how the road aligns on the Gilstrap Library, itself built on a former open space in front of the Castle. This is a very old alignment between the Castle and the market place.
