Streets to be Re Named

So we are to have our streets re-named, and plates put up informing the stranger and pilgrim the name of the street in which he is standing.

There is no doubt we have a very curious medley of names –

Codder Alley-Smth’s Fold, Lightning’s Post Office Street (without the post-office in it).

At present it is very difficult for strangers to find their way about.
