Kemp Street

2019: James Gray mistook Queen’s Gardens for Kemp Street, a similar North Laine street of terraced houses. Tivoli Laundry’s head office was in Crescent Road, with receiving offices in Southover Street and at 5 Kemp Street. Today in Kemp Street, parked cars are more in evidence but so are bicycles. The view in the 2019 photograph shows houses on the east side of Kemp Street, near the junction with Gloucester Road and looking towards Trafalgar Street. All the houses in view have had changes made to their windows, Nos 5 and 6 have lost their arched doorways, and No 5 is no longer a commercial building. (Photographer: Lyn Turpin)
