 4 - Christian Street
CHRISTIAN STREET
Formerly Anne Street, Christian Street in this view gives a better perspective than most of the other ground level views. High up on the extreme left is the round tower of St. Conval’s original infants/primary school with the roof of St. Mary's church behind. Then the short Townshouse tower can be seen, with the old swing park in the middle-ground which was remodelled and improved 1998. The baths and steamie are well hidden by the trees, about half of which are still there, while the area at the far end of Christian Street is well portrayed in later slides. Street gas-lighting, of which a few posts are visible were done away with soon after this time. The school and Burgh Halls (right) will be glimpsed in other slides
