City Road, opposite Lovers' Lane

Image: © Deborah Tilley Taken: 20 Jul 2008

This little terraced house has doubled in size over the years to produce a substantial building. There is a lane opposite leading to 21,23,25 and 27 City Road. It used to be known as Lovers' Lane. I wonder why??? City Road was known as Cokey Street in bygone years and the area off Haven Road beyond now known as Cuckoo was also known as Cokey. This was obviously the road to Cokey. (Which had a garth and was also connected with the Priory) The area behind this terrace is called Castle High and is a modern housing estate. It is said that these houses are built on the graves of the poor unfortunates of Haverfordwest who died in the plague of 1665.
