Description: This whole area was demolished in 1929. 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 which shows the lack of sanitation. Common lodging houses such as these would have particularly enhanced the spread of disease as rooms would be shared by many.
