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.

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.
