See our Warwick Road page (last passage) for notes on house-naming and house-numbering.
Names are painted, carved and moulded on buildings and structures all over the town, although building-naming seems to have gone out of fashion in the 21st century. This page aims to list, alphabetically in one place, those examples on the website.
