I can remember my parents getting quite excited about the prospect of buying a largish double upper flat very very near there when I was young. They didn't in the end and instead remained in their house with a garden out of the centre. I can just about remember being taken to see their prospective purchase and being intrigued by the internal spiral staircase.
But that area of town was very much part of my old stomping ground and I can confirm that during the festival it might not be the most peaceful place to live.
