A better old name
This very short lane between The Pithay and Church Street is called Church Lane. However, the sign also tells of its previous name - Candlegrease Lane.

A mortar and pestle?
This emblem hangs outside a shop on The Pithay. Today it is a food takeaway (see Image]), but this suggests it was previously a pharmacy.

Hill Court
This is a fairly modern little shopping street near the war memorial - post war at least. However, there is a date stone in the end wall to the right that makes for a certain amount of confusion. See Image

Paulton Post Office
The office appears to have served the community since the early twentieth century. You can even get your coat dry cleaned, too.

The builders are back in
This little piece of land beside Holy Trinity has seen plenty of building work, and thereafter demolition. Once this held a scattering of nineteenth century houses, outhouses and assorted school rooms. Later, it became the site where Somerville Comprehensive School founded an annexe in 1931; that closed in 1957. It then became a builder's yard from 1980 until 2007. Now the cement mixers are churning again, creating a residential area.
