Row Forty Seven map

This row was from North Quay to George Street. A public house next to it, but fronting George Street, was in 1805 the "White Swan", and in later years the "Golden Ball". It was the property of Lieut.Edmund Bennett, and Elizabeth, his wife.*1

The St John’s Head P.H.

Mr.R.W.Taylor, the last of the local clay pipe makers had his main factory. On the north side midway in the row, and retailed tobacco, cigarettes, pipes etc., in his shop to the south of the row at no.60 North Quay. The pipe factory is now used as a colourman's warehouse. Pigott's Directory announces Thomas Page, pipe makers, St.John's Head South Row; and the only other maker then was James Taylor of the Black Swan Row.*2

Looking along N Quay from the St John’s Head.

This row was not mentioned in the 1936 Row Survey.
