Lots of good names there, but where is that Stephen street sign? Turner Street is probably related to the Turner family which had significant land in Amble, Scott Street could well be after Walter Scott (another Victorian hero). I'm working on a theory that Marks Row, Marks Bridge have something to do with a Mark Douglas who seems to have had land at the top end.

Whereabouts is Duncans Buildings? Wasn't Peggy Aitcheson's daughter called Margaret Duncan?
