Description: This whole area was demolished in the late 1920's-early 30's. See NTGM000653 and ...654. All the houses were replaced by some of the first purpose built council houses. Narrow Marsh lay beneath the cliff on which stands the Lace Market. The area was notorious for its slum dwellings and outbreaks of cholera and other diseases. See NTGM001893 and NTGM001890 which shows the lack of sanitation and open drains. Note the houses here show frame-knitters windows and an odd set of replacement windows on the house on the left!
