Severn Street (1905)
by E.A.Phipson
Severn Street runs from
Edgar Street to the river. It was formerly known as Frog
Lane and passed out of the medieval city through Frog
Gate. Today it runs between the Royal Porcelain Works
and the King's School. These cottages stood on land now
occupied by the school, and were painted by E.A.Phipson
in 1905. Many of the houses in Severn Street were once
occupied by salmon fishermen.
