History

The street is medieval and formed the north to south spine of the Saxon town.[1]

For many years the street was a cul-de-sac, terminating before the current junction with High Pavement.[2] It was a residential street by the eighteenth century, containing some fine mansions including Plumptre House and Pierrepont House.

During the 19th century, the residential properties were replaced by Lace factories and these buildings still dominate the street.
