ROW
NINETY ONE AND A HALF[1]
Greyfriars
Row[2]
Cloisters
Row
Of the rows
most treasured by the
artist and photographer, this
short row is unequalled. At the west end stands the
cloisters of the
greyfriars, and these are well worth a visit. The Franciscan monks
settled in Yarmouth in
the 13th.C. The
elaborate ceiling needed in
1927 immediate attention, and a fund was
started for the necessary
renovations, long overdue. As an attraction the cloisters were a
valuable asset to the town.*2 Unfortunately they are now rather inaccessible
behind high iron railings.
Row ninety‑one
and a half was no
thoroughfare, and led from
Middlegate Street to a cottage built over the east
cloister of the church of
the Greyfriars.*1 A portion of
this in a very perfect state formed the entrance to the house as
seen in the
picture engraved on page 128, vol.II, Palmers Perlustration.
The 1936 row
survey says ‑ Greyfriars Cloister. This has an
overhanging storey on its south side,
and leads to the old
Franciscan Church. The
tenements in the row should be made stores, and closed to habitation.
