Rows 40 -51 link

Row 46, from Howard Street  to Market place, was called Sewell's Row, from the grocers shop and house next  to  it,  facing the Market, for more than  half a century occupied by a family called Sewell,  members of the Society of friends.*1  

Pigott's Directory announces Ann Rudd, dealer in Turnery, Nags Head Row. This row has a covered east entrance  in common with most of the market rows, and the rear of this entrance is worthy of notice. The flat tiles extending to the roof, as used, are not often met with in the town.*2    

Sewell's Row has a large old  house (now made into three tenements in a  court), and a short alley off its north side.  There is also a good house  near the end of this row against Howard Street, and two others  on  its  south side,  all with sash barred windows of  the 18th.century. These stand  slightly back. Near to the Market Square on the north side is a tile hung house of three  storeys with sash barred windows, this house is part of Backs Saloon Bar.*3
